Great place in the cute little town of Balat. Very historical with lots to explore locally. A quick 20-25min bus ride can get you to the city center by Galata bride and everything is pretty much walking distance from there. Place was great! Well equipped. However it was on the 6th floor I believe? So if you can’t climb stairs for any reason make sure you clarify which floor you’re staying on. It wasn’t a problem for us. Great balcony and weather was great! Hosts were very helpful and gave us a mini walking tour on how to get to the bus, etc. Also helped us carrying up our bags and arranged our pickup-drop off from to the airport. Super nice! Recommend for a short stay in Istanbul if you want to be in a quiet local neighborhood.
