Rasim is such an accommodating host. We had our plans change twice during the trip and were able to extend our stay and check in late and out early. It’s peaceful and we have fallen in love with the Balat neighborhood. You could just stay there your whole trip and have an amazing vacation. Coffee shops (European style), tea shops, vintage stores, pharmacy, family restaurants, chain restaurants, bus stop (only three stops away from Haliç metro which will connect you with everything else) and a short walk to beautiful parks and the water.
The apartment is clean, convenient, and quiet. We couldn’t have asked for more.
