it's a nice small three floor apartment. it's about 10 min walk from Taksim Square. the access road is narrow, stopping of a taxi is difficult without causing traffic jam. finding a taxi from the property is difficult. Though close to Taksim sq, the steep roads can be difficult for older people. Soundproofing is weak. These are inherent characteristics of the property. Denis is a good host and answered all questions promptly. For young couples, this is good bargain.
