We stayed in this appartement for 6 days, to attend a congress and to enjoy Istanbul. It was perfect in many ways: Alexis ' mother received us very nice, the appartement was very very clean and had everything we wanted. We didn't use the refrigerator or washingmachine, but it's all there. We felt comfortabele and at ease. The congress centre was a 10 minutes walk from the appartement, as was Taksim square. This area of Istanbul is a good location for people who, like us, have free time to spend in the evenings, because it's a very lively place. The street where the appartement is is quiet. I would love to come back to this appartement if I ever return to this wonderful city!
