We had a wonderful stay here! The location is the best you can get. Kronotrop coffee across the street is great! There’s a couple of great Turkish breakfast restaurants around the corner (Van kahvaltı and yiğit sofram). A great pizza place (49 Çukurcuma). There’s a million fun antique shops and art galleries. Cats galore. It’s close enough to all the touristy stuff but far enough to feel laid back and a more local feel.
Beds were a bit hard but many are in Turkey. We had everything we needed when we grabbed groceries from the carrefour around the corner and ate in.
Had a bit of a hard time finding it initially but with some help form a few local neighbors we made it.
All in all I would definitely return.
