The apartment was a great base to explore Istanbul. Aylin was very helpful in booking us taxis and recommending places to eat.
The apartment is clean and has everything we needed for our stay. We walked to most places from here but public transport is easy to use and there is a metro stop nearby.
It can be quite loud at night as it's in the city centre.
An app we found really useful for places to eat listed by area was called zawarib.
A must see is the basilica cistern and I would also suggest getting a ferry to Kadikoy to eat. It's very cheap and the food is amazing.
