The location of Canan's apartment is great. It's a five-minute walk away from the pier (from where you can take the ferry to Eminönü/Karaköy and probably other places too). The stop where the airport buses (both to the Sabiha Gökcen and the Istanbul airports) is also next to the pier! Kadiköy is a very nice neighborhood, full of great breakfast cafes, small shops and bars. You can also see the sea from the apartment balcony. Although there are a lot of bars in Kadiköy, the street in which the apartment is doesn't have any, so it's really quiet at night. Canan's apartment is clean and cozy and has all the stuff you need for cooking. The only thing that could be improved is having two towels if two guests are staying. All in all it was a great four-day stay!
