Definitely recommend. It was our first visit in Istanbul and we were initially looking for a place in the old city or what we considered to be "more central". That would have been a mistake, the location is great, far from the busy/noisy center but yet in a lively area. Right about 5 minutes away you have a popular Fatih street, with lots of coffee shops, restaurants, markets, etc. The location is great, 30 min bus trip to most popular attractions and if we weren't to stay here, we would not have found the restaurant "Karakoy kahvesi balat" which has great food, prices and full with locals (must have google translate for menu, they don't speak English but try their best to help). The house is as in the pictures, the roof terrace is wonderful for relaxing in the evening, the view is much better than the pictures. We were two couples, the upper bedroom does not have a door because you enter by stairs, so no 100% sound privacy , still separate to the other one, but I wouldn't let this be a deal breaker, especially when the entire house is wonderful and we did not really have trouble with this. Kitchen equipped, washing machine, air conditioner in the bedrooms, big fans in the other rooms. There is the mention of steep hill, but to be honest, Istanbul is built on hills, the entire city is a steep hill, so again, your feet will hurt regardless where you live :). Visited by car, I could park in front of the house, I left it there for a week and had no problems (the streets are narrow, don't panic with the steep hills, use your hand break).
