I really enjoyed my stay in the Taksim Historical apartment! The apartment was exactly what I expected from the pictures. It was clean and well maintained. The bedrooms were very comfortable and so was the living room, there was a lot of space for many people to sit. The bathroom was nice as well with a good shower. The location was just perfect. Within 2 minutes walking distance from Istiklal Caddesi and close to public transport at Taksim as well. Just outside the apartment there is a police station, which made it feel like a very safe place to stay. Yasar was a very nice host, he gave us a lot of freedom and was very flexible with the check in and check out. Whenever I contacted him, he replied immediately and was always there to help us. I really enjoyed my stay here and I would definitely come back next time I visit Istanbul!
