The apartment is ok, and the localization good too. There are 2 market 2 minutes walking, and 5 minutes walking you have the best of Beyouglu and have a lot of good restaurants, cafes, etc. 5 minutes from Istiklal street, and 10 minutes from Taksim subway. Unfortunatelly the neighborhood is very noise with many cars horking all the time and the street besides the apartment has a car barrier to avoid cars in the opposite way, and every car that pass in it you will hear the sound and it bothers a lot. Our point of view is the apartment is good but for a short stay only.
