The flat is very cozy, stylishl, with everything necessary, and in a great neighborhood. Few minutes walking to Taksim square, to the metro, to the Istiklal Avenue, little longer but nice walks to the Galata Tower area and other pleasant sites. There are tens of cafes and restaurants around, the great one is just the next door ("Heirloom"), and many antique shops in the neighborhood. Pelin and her partner Corka are very good hosts - provided us with everything we needed(maps and city guides in the room)
and answered all our questions about the flat, the area and Istanbul, giving us valuable advisesand recommendations. Thank you, guys!
