i appreciate all the help i received throughout the stay, Rana was super accommodating, answered all my questions almost right away. i needed a break and an escape and this space was perfect for that. it’s a beautiful apartment and it felt like i was at home for 2 weeks. location wise is great if you’re planning on walking up hills and taking stairs, right behind taksim. it was hard for me since i got bad knees but i got used to it eventually. taxis are a bit hard to find near the apartment so you’ll have to walk down a street or two.
