Perfect place for big family. We felt like home right after we checked in. The homestay unit has it all - kitchen with great amenities, dining table, decent living room and the TV is HD or 4K I guess.
To get there was a little tricky the first time. But it became familiar very quickly.
Location wise is great. 5 minutes uphill walk to Taksim square.
6-7 minutes downhill walk to Findikli tramp station which then connects to other places.
Caution: The location is quite hilly. Maybe a bit difficult to older people. However, Taksim Metro station is 5 minutes away which might help.
Overall, recommended.
