Cihangir is my favorite neighborhood in Istanbul. Pelin's apartment is in a perfect location and within easy walking distance to many cafes, restaurants, Taksim, subway, Istiklal Caddis, etc. Pelin and her partner were very welcoming and helpful. We had a few questions regarding the television and they were readily available to help. The apartment is small, but very charming and comfortable. I came with a friend of mine and she slept in the living room which she said was comfortable.
