A very comfortable apartment with air conditioning in the living room and main bedroom, perfect for hot weather. The balcony has a great view over the neighbourhood with a glimpse of the sea.
The location is excellent as well with easy access to taxis and a main road, but also within walking distance of the Hagia Sofia, the Grand Bazaar etc through charming historic streets.
It is not far to some of the crossing points, which makes reaching the Asian side by ferry (a must!) very straightforward.
Finally, a word about the host - Wahid is extremely helpful and friendly, and put us at our ease straightaway.
Would definitely recommend and if returning I'd hope to stay here again!
