This is a perfect place to stay for anyone visiting Istanbul, it's very central as described, a 5 min walk to the main street through taksim to galata tower. Supermarkets and small shops close by. The rooms are beautiful and well decorated, it is quite warm (for a british person!) and has no air-con or a fan. The wifi doesn't reach into the bedroom but this means you can have a break from technology which was well needed. In all I would highly recommend staying here, Fatih was a wonderful host, very attentive and quick to answer. Massive thumbs up!!
