We spent the new year's even at Hakan's apartment. View from the living room is amazing and you can have a clear view of the Bosphorus Bridge. There was no new year firework show due to the pandemic, but we managed to see a few firework displays from the apartment and imagined the view would be spectacular if there is one! The apartment is clean, spacious and has many bathroom and kitchen utilities. It is located on the 5/F and the building doesn't have a lift. Hakan was very helpful and had helped us move the luggages at both check in and check out. I would recommend staying with Hakan in Istanbul.
