The location is great just a 5 minutes drive to Taksim Square. There is Carrefour close to the apartment. Taxis and buses across the street, many local kebab shops.
Shahrzad is a great host who was always there if we needed something, for example extra bed linens was given immediately and when the small hairdryer was broken she quickly replaced it with another one. She gave us some information about the taxi prices which was really helpful.
Her communication is really quick.
We enjoyed our stay at her place.
