Verda and her husband are nice and warm people. They are helpful and noble to their guests. The location is perfect and the accommodation corresponds to the price. The atmosphere in the neighborhood is authentic; it combines hoses of European style and old traditional local shops and cafés. The distance from Istiklial and Taksim is small; you can easily reach Galata tower, Kabatas or whatever with comfortable public transport on step. The place called Verda’s apartments is clean, small and cozy. It's so clever they decided to put this light colors in the basement. I strongly recommend Verda’s house for adventurers in love with Istanbul and the neighborhoods established in the modern times of Turkey.
