The apartment looks exactly like in the pictures ad better. It is spacious, clean, well equiped and very bright. The neighborhood is ok, markets right on the street, it was quiet and felt safe even at night. The balcony is just perfect and was the reason why I chose this apartment. The view is spectacular.
It is indeed very close from the Istiklal street and it was very convenient to walk almost everywhere in the city. We only used the public transport when we went to the Asian Part and when we were very very tired.
Guner was nice, he helped us immediatly when we needed help with someting to be fixed in the apartment.
