Very convenient location, few minutes walk to Metro station and Taksim square, also nice walk around the neighborhood, lovely restaurant and local market are just around the corner; the view form his balcony is super nice and jack himself is very cool, he gave us metro card so we can explore the city by public transportation; but you may like to check with him about the hot water cause it might be tricky to get hot water, overall, it was cool staying at jack's place.
