Deniz has a cozy top-floor apartment with a deck from which you can see the Bosphorus, a place to relax after walking through Istanbul. The bed was comfortable, and the place quiet at night. Having the clothes washing machine in the unit was key to our selection of the unit - very convenient. We did have problems with the internet though, frequently requiring a power on/off on the router to restore service. Also the hot water was a bit finicky, multiple times requiring a reset to work properly. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay in Taksim.
