We stayed in serdar's appartment for one week, excellent location, very good neighborhood, taksim Square is 2 or 3 min walk, domino's pizza 200 m from the appartment. The appartment is really nice. Just be aware that there is no elevator but for us it was not a problem ( sometimes we need to do sport :D so it's good). There is 2 mini markets next to the appartment also. Area feel safe, i really recommand and will bit hesitate ti return to serdar's flat
