The place had amazing views, close to the tram/ferry to quickly go to Sultanemat and Dolmabache Palace. It was very spacious and the bedrooms were quiet even if it opens on a busy street. It is just slightly up the hill, but there is a grocery store nearby which helps a ton. Would have loved to get food recommendations
The reason I did not give 5 stars is there were
- Communication challenge with many of the equipment - Washer / Dishwasher were in Turkish, so hard to know the correct setting.
- Couple of issues with the house and it took a bit to resolve. The blind in 1 of the bedrooms wasn't working, and the heater in the lobby was also not working. In another bedroom the blind did not darken enough, so was hard for the kids to sleep. The dishwasher soap wasn't going for 2 days, sink the water came up from the pipe when the dishwasher was running and they never fixed it because it was at least slowly draining. They said the person checked and it was working.
