Value for money is great as it's an entire place for an unbeatable price. It's a good neighborhood for being quiet and that's what I was looking for, there are not really pubs around which may be a downside for people looking for that kind of entertainment, but there are certainly a lot of places to go drink tea and smoke "narguile", and bus stops are nearby to get to Taksim for example. Elisa even lent me an Istanbul Card to move around so that I didn't have to buy one.
