The best neighborhood! Pleasant stay! I have been to Istanbul many times, but this time was different! such an amazing experience being far from touristic areas. Very quiet and close to cool cafes and restaurants and also not too far from Asian side touristic areas. Selçuk and Hale are super nice and friendly. Very responsive and communicative. Helped us with all we needed and were always available. The furniture is pretty new, kitchen, two beds, sofas, wifi, all you need for a cozy convenient vacation. The building is a basic old one, but the interiors are renovated and very nicely designed. The bathroom is clean. room and balcony are very nice and quiet. Ask the hosts for good cafes in the street right next to the apartment. Very close to metro and bus stations, also ferry station. Easy to go wherever you want! the trip from the airport was very easy too. The bus would drop you at the ferry station in Kadikoy, it's 13 a 13-minute walk to the apartment. I would definitely come back here next time!
