The photos of this place were very accurate. Our host-contact was enormously helpful to us in identifying transportation, making restaurant recommendations (we highly recommend the restaurant called by the same name as the house - Amedros) & was highly responsive. The only drawback to this location is the speaker on a nearby mosque which blares a prayer call in the pre-dawn hours, but I believe that is the case anywhere in Istanbul. The location of this property is incredibly convenient & as residents of a large metro US city, I found the neighborhood safe. This is the place to be in the Old City. Oh - and the views from the roof deck will take your breath away!
