The apartment is well situated in Kadikoy - very close to main restaurants and shops yet in a relatively quite street. From the apartment you can walk everywhere you want in this district. We found the apartment to be cosy, large and clean. Bedrooms are very quiet and peaceful as the windows are looking at the inner backyard. It is one of the best options for families with kids. The hosts (Bulut and her husband Ali) are extremely polite, punctual and helpful. We had to go to the airport at 4:30 am and they graciously arranged for a taxi in the middle of a night! Weak sides are the age of the building which is getting a bit old and a several cats that made the ground floor their home. I must stress though that it is not a problem at all. Overall - this is a great place, do not hesitate to book it and enjoy!
