Selims place was very convenient to main tourist attractions. We hired a car for the duration of the trip but didn’t use it much as streets around the apartment are very tight and busy. We walked locally which took the same time as taking the car. Apartment was as described. Only down side was the main shower head doesn’t work and the detachable shower head that was working the temperature would fluctuate from extremely hot to freezing cold. Which wasn’t convenient when showering the kids.
Other then that we had an amazing trip in Istanbul.
