Yusuf was great! Super helpful and assisted me with an affordable ride back to the airport etc. The place was a little tricky to find, as the streets in that part of the city are a bit confusing. It’s a great location for the historic attractions. For solo female travelers, I would not necessarily recommend staying in this part of the city (which bears no reflection on Yusuf) At night, it was uncomfortable for me on the walk back to the apartment...I was the only woman I saw after sunset and, even though I was dressed modestly, the men were quite aggressive. I will probably stay in Beyoglu next time, since there tends to be more people walking on the streets at night as well as more westerners.
