The location is not great, it's in a very old and dilapidated part of Istanbul. I got lost because the address is unclear and no taxi driver understood the location, the host could not speak any English and it was a nightmare. I ended up lost in the old town at night, and the place is full of drug dealers and junkies. It was terrifying. The flat itself was clean and fit for purpose but it's a strange location and I was not comfortable. There is also a full market that opens up right outside the living room window, with all food being sold and vegetables. It is ok but the noise is a lot and the sellers are right outside the window. I also lost my watch in the apartment, it was never located and I contacted the host but she doesn't reply. I did not enjoy the stay at all. My flight was at 9pm and I asked for a late check out and she refused, saying there were new people coming. Her neighbour is a kind man, and he offered to keep our bags whilst we walked around Istanbul until the evening. If he hadn't helped us, we would have been in big trouble. We had a 6 year old child with us but she didn't really care.
