The place was like in the pictures. It is a 5-7 minute walking distance from the Zeytinburnu metro station. All the major sites in Istanbul are a short metro ride away from Zeytinburnu. We especially enjoyed stay because it was in a quiet neighborhood away from the hustle bustle of the tourist districts. Food in the nearby main street (where lot of shops and restaurants were located) was really good and cheap. The host was really helpful and warm and made us home-made turkish coffee and sweets! The view of the sea is also good.
