Great location for those looking to be near old town: 10 min walk to Grand Bazaar, 15 walk to Aya Sofia, Blue Mosque, etc. Safe neighborhood; great restaurant just one block down (Hanzade Terrace), some supermarkets nearby. Apartment was great for our needs (3 bedrooms, smaller but functional kitchen); communal area has dining table but no sofa, etc (didn't matter for us as we spent most day out in the city). Communication from host was excellent. Overall worth the money.
Two notes:
- For taxi drop-off, use Piyer Loti Cd 29 address as the actual street of the apartment building's front door, Katip Sinan, is pedestrian only.
- It's a 4-5 floor walk-up with no elevator.
