This is beautiful place for friend or couples. Te view is fantastic. Lived here for 10 days with my husband, we had everything we needed, clean and funky apartment. Very mordern and cool. The host is very helpful, and he has a coffeeshop 1 min walking distance from the aparment where you can often find him. He is willing to help as much as he can. And the communication between host and guest was perfect. The area is good, 3 min walk to the tram that taked you to all the historical places in instanbul. 5-6 min walk straight takes you to the main shopping and eating strees istikalal abd taksim! Very recomended for someone who want to walk around istanbul without the intentions of using too much taxi. One more very coool thing is that, just 2 min walk from the apartment there is a shisha lounge called lulu lounge! Its beatuful, classy, and funky. Good foood, shisha and drinks!
