A great place to take a nice break. The view is better than the pictures, there is great light from all three sides and the apartment is well located. Up the hill it is but 5 minutes to Taksim by foot and down the hill 5 minutes to the Tram. Despite being very central, the apartment is very quiet, the building is quiet and the neighborhood is very calm (the beds are very comfortable too). As we stayed for a month, we made many meals at home in the fully equipped kitchen and loads of laundry. There is a good butcher on the way to the Tram and many fruit and vegetable vendors (for those who need a Carrefour, there is one at the Tram stop).

Ilhan is a very charming and upbeat host. He works around the corner and he is happy to help you out if needed or just leave you alone to do your own thing if you prefer.

We had a great time and look forward to coming back...
