We had a wonderful time at this apartment - it's spacious and light and has everything you might need - including a whole bunch of beautiful cats who come and visit on the amazing terrace. Some of the furniture on the pictures has been replaced and looks more modern now.
Our host picked us up at Taksim, helped with the luggage and even got an Istanbul Card for local transportation for us.
Try out the kebab place next door - Ozzy prepares wonderful food, the salad that comes with the kebabs is delicious!
Walking up to Taksim (which takes literally 1 minute) there's an amazing grey building squeezed in between two streets - they are about to open a very pretty café in there! We'll check that out next time!
