The apartment is beautifully placed, literally a 3 minute walk from Istiklal Street and is very accessible by public transport.(both metro and tram) The area is close enough to the main commercial area, but also in a residential space that is tucked away so it’s quiet enough. Getting here from the airport is easy too and our host Missy and her sister were very helpful with letting us settle in. They even arranged for a storage space to leave our bags since we had a midnight flight to catch. The apartment was well stocked with all the amenities, there’s heating iron and a washing machine for those that wish to use it. Highly recommended if you‘re in Istanbul.
