This was our first trip to Istanbul and we were so lucky to live in this particular neighborhood with small antique shops, restaurants and art galleries all around. The apartment at Brickpalas was very stylish with beautiful furniture and materials and had everything we could possibly need. The neighborhood was quiet and safe and still within walking distance from the main street and metro and tram stops. We highly recommend Arek as a host and would definitely stay at Brickpalas again.
