Everything in the apartment was exactly as shown in the pictures. The kitchen is perfect for making small meals, and the inclusion of a dishwasher was a life saver. The balcony is also a welcome plus.The AC is small but can effectively cool the entire apartment which was the case even when I stayed there during the heat wave. The location though is the real plus point of this place. It is located in lively Moda and is perfect place for those who want to experience the Istanbul nightlife. That said, the way the apartment is situated towards the back portion of the building (i.e. away from the street) means that outside noise doesn't make it in. Moda is also a short walk away to the ferries that will easily connect you to the rest of the city.
And Umut was incredibly helpful and always on hand when I needed him, which definitely made my stay more comfortable. I definitely recommend this place!
