Sinan is a wonderful host, and very very kind. He gave us all what we needed in informations for the transport and how to access to the apartment. The location is perfect for visiting the old istanbul and even the new one, not far from the bosphorus coast too. You have the metro in 10 minutes, the tram in 15 minutes just walking, the ferry too in eminonu. Perfect really ! And the view from the balcony and windows is outstanding. You will never get bored to see the bosphorus in the sunset or the morning, the bridge, musk in front etc. We highly recommend it also because of the price. The clim works perfectly so as the wifi.
