I stayed about 5 months at Anne's flat while studying at Bogazici University. It is conveniently located close to Taksim as well as Osmanbey metro. The apartment has a nice character and is very comfortable, with pretty much everything you need in the way of bedsheets, kitchen supplies, and TV/internet/etc. I enjoyed the decor, wood floors, and balcony. The smaller bedroom worked nicely as a study room. There were a few problems and leaks over the course of my stay related to it being an old building. They were minor inconveniences; I either worked them out with the landlord (in Turkish, don't know how this would work if you didn't speak Turkish), or Anne was reachable and helpful via WhatsApp. Also, sometimes an unpleasant smell would come up through the pipes and into the kitchen, again due to the nature of the older construction. It was pretty sporadic though and didn't influence the overall quality of my stay. Thanks, Anne!
