Excellent location, walking distance ie 100 metres from Galata and Istiklal Street. Very near tram stations and small supermarket right across street which is open till very late in the night. Good restaurants and cafe within 50 metres for breakfast and meals. Dodo is an excellent host and is always available on text or call. He stays near by and is very helpful in case of any thing you need in the apartment or any other advice you need about Istanbul. The apartment is nice and cosy and well furnished and stocked with basics. If in Istanbul would surely book this place again.
