The apartment was wonderful, right next to the Metro and only a short walk from Üsküdar centre and high street. There are lovely shops and scenery all around, no matter which direction you walk! The apartment was very clean and comfortable with basically everything you could need. Even without AC the apartment was cool even on 28°c days. Would definitely recommend this as a perfect location for any type of visit to Istanbul, especially if you're planning on exploring the Asian side more, though the Europe side is only a lovely boat ride or quick subway trip away!
