This place is in a great location, walking distance to Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Grand Bazaar, Spice Bazaar, Eminonu Ferry, etc. The cheapest and best food I had in Istanbul was at Ziya Baba Restaurant, which is less than a 5 minute walk from the room. Yusuf was very helpful. He was waiting for us to arrive. He gave us a map, showed us the relevant locations, and gave his advice on what to do. We didn't have hot water in the shower. For this part of the world, I consider hot water a luxury instead of a necessity, and I just feel lucky when I have it. We did not have hot showers here. Not a big deal for me, but just fyi.
