We stayed here for three nights and in short - it was desent place and great host Ali. He met us and gave all the instructions and reccomendations, so we were there as the local people just in 30 minutes. Good job, Ali! The apartment is absolutely comfortable for a couple with two kids: quiet location, enough space, all the stuuf needed to take care of youself. I woud add some more light to the main room and fix the shampoo dispenser at the bathroom. The location is ok to walk to the main points of attraction in Istanbul, but a bit aside from touristic paths, so get ready to feel the real local old city enviroment - old houses, dirty streets, lots of locals etc. There`s a great evening restorant corner Kumkapi just two blocks from the venue, e spent two evening there enjoying the local food and hospitality.
