Merve’s apartment is spectacular with a jaw-dropping view of the Bosphorus as soon as you enter. The apartment was well equipped (including coffee, tea and sugar) and is very stylish whilst the location in Cihangir is great for nearby bars and restaurants. We walked to Sutlanahmet (30-40mins) although there is good metro or public connections if preferred. Merve was a great host also and I would definitely recommend this apartment for any stay in Istanbul
