A great apartment if you want to explore Nisantasi and Besiktas and get a feel for the real Istanbul. Great location - walking distance to great cafes / restaurants and lots of local boutique coffee shops. Mini Supermarket literally underneath the building- they stock all the basics ! Apartment was spacious, 2 good size bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Kitchen has all you need, including a washing machine . Host (Tunc) was in constant communication to ensure a smooth check in and was super quick in responding to any queries and was a genuinely helpful host.
