Elif's place is right in the center of the old part of the city; the Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque, and Aya Sophia are all within 5 minutes walking distance. This is both a blessing and a curse, as there are many men on the streets who will aggressively try to get your business. We had a rather uncomfortable situation with one man swearing at us every time we went by on the street to the guesthouse (which we ended up finding a backway to go instead). But except that, everything was absolutely lovely. The terrace, the room, and breakfast were so so nice. Plus, the ladies serving breakfast were all warm and welcoming to us every morning, sometimes giving us extra treats :) They were our favorite part of our stay (plus the great terrace view!). If you are looking to stay near the main tourist attractions, this is the place to be!
