My boyfriend and I spent six days in Istanbul, at this apartment and we were so fascinated by the city that we didn’t pay too much attention to the accommodation. However, the apartment is very cute, nicely decorated, and it has all the things you might need for your stay. We didn’t experiment with cooking big meals but then, who would do such a thing in Istanbul. Cleaning lady comes every morning and fresh towels are provided daily. Wi-fi is available and not much more then that one should need.
I saw some comments about the location, it’s true there’s a steep street leading to the main street and tram station but it’s not 20 min walk, its max 10 min slow walk, and it’s a street with lots of character, busy, full of small restaurants, it’s full of locals. That is what I loved about it, it’s ‘local touch’.
All the main attractions are within the walking distance and we've used public transport only once.
We had very good communication with Saban and his team, nothing there I could complain about. We were nicely welcomed upon the arrival and provided with the map and some quick tips.
I would go back any time.
