The place can be noisy during day time, but it did not bother us because we were out exploring the city most of the day. Hikmet's hospitality is outstanding. He prepared us nice breakfast and ordered us a taxi from and to airport, as well as helped us with the move in. The location is central and is within walking distance to most of the attractions, such as Grand Bazaar, Hagia Sophia and Sultanahmed Mosque. Hikmet is an amazing host. Thank you so much!
