Elif's place had the most friendly managers I have ever seen. They were very friendly and so helpful. The location of the guest house is amazing, at the heart of the Sultanahmet district. the place has great restaurant and shops downstairs and the whole neighbourhood is so vibrant. I highly recommend Elif's place to anyone looking forward to visit Istanbul. Staying at this location (almost next to the sea), you can explore the whole area very quickly on foot.
We were also provided with a nice Turkish-style breakfast. My room had ample lighting and circulation and was very clean too. Again, the friendly staff take away the cake.
