The place is really nice feeling like at home. Also surrounded by coffee and tea shops. 5-10min walking from Istiklal street which is full of shops and just 15 min from Taksim where it is a good exchange money place. Also Dilek helped us being really responsive all the time. The apartment is really quiet and it has an amazing kebab place just downstairs. The place is located most probably in the nicest neighborhood which is not just residential area but 5 min walking from a anywhere. My new favorite place in Istambul!
