Nice appartment situated in a tranquil zone and perfect for remote working and occasional visits into the centre of the city. The Mall of Istanbul and Arena Park (another shopping centre) are all within easy walking distance and I never had any problems walking there or back - road crossings apart but you will soon figure that out. The metro stop is only 2 minutes away by foot and will get you into the centre in an hour or so. Two supermarkets are just outside the building; the gym downstairs is will stocked and was quiet when I was in there as was the pool, better to use that in morning if you want to do some lengths. Recommended and I would stay again if I got the chance. There is a mosque close by and likely you will be woken by the call to prayer however this is a common theme across Istanbul.
