This is a very clean and comfortable home and decorated with great taste and thought! It was very well located being close to the Bosporus and taksim square but one has to walk uphill to get to taksim square. It has an elevator which is rare. The outside of the building looks old n tired like all of the area around the apartment but inside is a clean and lovely work of art! I would stay here again and tried extending my stay but it was unavailable! The host was very responsive and he even sent HASAN to meet me when the cable had problems. 5 stars all round!!!
