Okan was very responsive, helpful and friendly. Any minor stuff came up and we informed him , he immediately solved it to make sure we have a pleasant experience of staying there. The location is super close to Taksim square - walikng distance- and we never had to wait more than 5-7 minutes for uber to arrive if wanted to go there by car. Also once you are stepping out of the building, there are so many taxis passing by that you can take to go anywhere you want. It’s not a big street and it is very quiet at night. The view from the living room is just breathtaking and if you open the big windows in the afternoon, you will have a very nice breeze coming from the sea. AC in rooms and living room work properly. one small but useful supermarket is just across the street from the apartment and we got everything we needed from there even fresh bread . But there are plenty of nice and relaxing cafe and restaurants close by walking distance. Be prepared for up and down streets but the whole city is like that so no surprise to see many areas with steep streets . And that’s the beauty of Istanbul.
