Thanks Deniz,. We (1 x male, 3 x female) were in Istanbul for the marathon festival and wanted an apartment with 4 separate rooms and this fitted the bill. Everything was as advertised. Lovely clean apartment, with local shops and plenty of eating choices. We walked to Taksim Square, about 15 minutes then got public transport around the town. Not flat, some steep hills locally but felt safe at all times of day or night. Loved Istanbul, we appreciated and used the tips left by Deniz, going to a number of the suggested sites and restaurants. Had a great time, the apartment was perfect for us, lots of space, close enough to everything we needed. Got a taxi from the bus station just across and up the road back to the airport for TL80 which was great value between four. Loved Istanbul and loved this apartment. Recommended.
