The location is simply excellent, good value for money, and we enjoyed our stay on the whole. Communication was very easy and service-oriented. Just three aspects were not ideal: The fact that being in the souterrain, the appartment is relatively dark; the kitchenette is not really equipped to seriously cook a meal there. So be prepared to just benefit from the very good restaurants and cafés available in Istanbul. And finally something probably has to be done about the bathroom since the continuous smell of the toilet which is entering the adjacent sleeping room was found to be disturbing.
