I have stayed there with my girlfriend. We arrived late at night and Guven let us in without any problem. Guner assisted us on the phone as we were trying to find the place but like many we haven't seen him. Flats are neat and nice. The house keeper lady was so sweet and helpful. Everything was good. Location is close to Istiklal Caddesi and Taksim Square. Neighborhood... dont know what to say really. It is pretty bad. Definetly not the safest or the neatest. Not that we experienced any thing bad but you always feel the creeps as you walk in the hood. If not for the area everything was good.
