wonderful experience, a 2 minute walk to taksim square and the metro, and the long bustling walking street the goes thru beyoglu. safa was wonderful, warm, gracious, and helpful. the room was immaculate and had a dishwasher and washing machine, amazing shower. there are two cute markets right out the front door we got groceries and used the beautiful stove to make most of our own meals. would absolutely stay here again, cute quiet backstreet. thanks safa!
