This was our first time in Istanbul, and we were so happy to have had the opportunity to stay here. The apartment is in a cool, old building, which is just off one of the main streets. We cannot say enough good things about the neighborhood, which has lots of great cafes and restaurants, and is close enough to Taksim to make other parts of the city accessible. Pelin made it easy to check in and was helpful throughout our stay. We highly recommend the apartment and area and would love to be back again soon!
