the Apartment is a small flat, one floor above the ground. Steep stairs! includes a nice bedroom, a hall with kitchen and bathroom. all that is needed for such stay. all was clean and functional. location is what's important: the main street sloping from Istiklal (50m) is reach in coffee-shops, groceries, bakeries, pubs. for us this was useful. all are open also on weekend. part of the street is very steep!! (if you'r climbing with suitcase). distance to public transport (Taksim, Tophane, Shishane, Tunel) is very short. contacting host was simple (WhatsApp) no bothers regarding timing of check-in or out. so convenient!! we have been to another flat nearby, 2 years ago, and this is far better.
