I stayed at the apartment for 2 weeks and absolutely loved it. It’s in a quiet, yet close to busy neighborhoods, area (like 15-20 minutes walk to Taksim Square or Nisantasi.
There are also a lot of local shops where you can buy fruit, vegetables and necessities as well as local cafes with great turkish food.
Bakery Polo is just up the hill and is great for coffee and desserts.
Yes, there is a small hill but cmon, you are in Istanbul it’s isn’t flat:) so previous negative review is absolutely irrelevant.
It’s also super quiet, I had no issues with any noise.
Apartment is bright and spacious enough, very warm in winter time and cute. I absolutely loved it. Thanks for having me
