The apartment is great, very spacious, close to several tourist attractions, such as Taksim square and Istklal street. The apartment is in an old building in the historic center of the city (with several slopes), so don't expect to find a new building. If you like new and modern buildings this is not the place for you. The location is a bit noisy at night, but it didn't interfere with our stay. The good thing is that from the apartment you can walk to the bus stop that takes you to the airport for a great price (Havaist): 87 Turkish lira. Mr Ali is extremely pleasant, attentive and helpful. He gives you all the necessary guidance by whats, including locations of places. Thanks.
