This place is just perfect in terms of location. It faces the Bosphorus so it has a lovely view and right behind, a one min walk is Istiklal street. The espresso lab downstairs is also a blessing for morning coffee and a quick breakfast. If you have the time, do explore the many lanes leading off the road - there are many quaint little stores and coffee shops - just do bear in mind a lot of it is uphill coming back to the apartment. Would highly recommend and will definitely stay here again.
