Check in and communication was great. Esra sent very clear indications and pictures. Also, the apartment was very near the bus station, which was really nice.
The apartment is far from the "must see" attractions in Istanbul, plan at least 45 minutes in the tram, which is located a few steps from the apartment. However the neighborhood is full of very welcoming people, we had all our most memorable interactions in stores or restaurants nearby. I'd recommend renting Esra's apartment just because of all the friendly people nearby.
Wifi was good but not excellent. It was sufficient for video calls but others couldn't use the Internet at the same time. It was fine for streaming or most regular use.
Place was clean, Esra was helpful, big enough for a family of four. Thanks for a great stay.
