Excellent location! Close to busy istkatel street but also close to another less known trendy area with cool wine bars and boutiques (Yeni carsi street). When we were there Istanbul was very hot but the apartment stayed nice and cool. He provides good WiFi and Istanbul card so we had no hassle getting around the city as soon as we arrived. He made sure we knew how to get there from the airport. He really made everything so easy for us! He was always available by text with tips. The perfect host.
