The apartment is lovely and in a great location if you want to be close to the Bosphorus or Bebek. The bus stop is a 2 minute walk away and there are tons of restaurants within walking distance. It’s pretty far from the tourist areas though if that’s your main goal. It takes about an hour by bus each way to get down to those areas. The view from the balcony is very nice and the apartment is spacious and fairly comfortable. It would be a good work from home space. Just note that the wifi isn’t super strong in the bedroom area, but works well everywhere else in the apartment. I had an issue with there being only freezing cold water from all the faucets and the shower when I arrived but the host was able to get a repairman there the next day to fix it. Also the walk to the apartment from the main street is up a very steep cobblestone hill, which would be tricky if you’re carrying luggage. There is a set of red brick stairs just past the apartment building on the right which provides a short cut to bypass the hill.
