We definitely recommend Carolina's place. It's a little oasis where you feel home right away. Top district to discover Istanbul, with nice bars and restaurants around. Walking distance to Taksim, Gallata tower and bridge. Super highlight is the cozy terrace which is great for having a tea/coffee in the morning or a wine/beer in the evening. The apartment is a unique art piece with lots of love in every detail kept very clean. Carolina was always available and super helpful regarding all our questions. We will come back.. Thank you!
