I cannot begin to express how wonderful Nicholas's apartment is. I spent a week here with my wife and three children and the apartment was perfect for our needs. It is spacious and tastefully decorated with comfortable furniture and modern appliances. All basic amenities are provided and this apartment is spotlessly clean. The children had enough space to relax and play as well, and the space felt like a home away from home. Location is perfect as you're literally a hop away from the famous Istiklal street and Taksim square, which boasts a variety of restaurants, shops and entertainment areas. From here it's easy to access the rest of the city via tram. We were received by Deniz on arrival who was was very pleasant and helpful and correspondence with Nicholas was easy and efficient. Overall our stay in Istanbul was wonderful and this apartment contributed greatly to that. We would recommend it to family and friends and will definitely stay here again when visiting Istanbul.
