I stayed with my parents for 5 days when I visited Istanbul and the place was PERFECT. First of all the location was awesome, it is very close to Istikal street where all the shops and restaurants are located but at the same time it is far away enough that you are not surrounded by tourists all the time. Public transportation is very good in Istanbul so you can get easily to the touristy spots but at the same time have a more local feel. The place itself was very spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Nida responded to any and all of our questions and there was always someone in the apartment complex to help with anything we needed. Would definitely stay here again when I come back to Istanbul!
