Excellent Location, cozy setting and great communication with the host! All you need to rate your visit to Istanbul a 5 star one. This place is literally within walking distance to major tourist attractions, however is you have difficulty walking uphill, you might want to consider taking a cab for a quick ride. Cabs are always available at the cross street. the host, Emre got back to us whenever we had a question within a few minutes and addressed all our requests and questions in a timely manner. Istanbul is a beautiful city and we are planning to come back again to Emre's apartment.
