My stay at this place was 9 days. The apartment is in the basement and it looks nice overall. Area I’d say is a bit scary and I was concerned about it in the beginning but just ended up staying inside in the evenings. Could hear a lot of noises from outside during late evenings. But anyway it’s just 5 min walking distance to all the shops and restaurants which is great. Also it has little food shops just 1 min away.
Bedroom has a little window but it’s a street level so it’s not really possible to get fresh air. The flat has weird smell I couldn’t get rid of and for me, having problems with breathing, it was very disturbing and bad... Kitchen has everything you gonna need for a short stay. Bathroom is tiny.
Check-in was super easy as I met Verda’s husband who let me in and he was very nice, showed me my apartment, handed the keys. Verda also texted once during my stay if I needed anything.
Overall my experience was okay. Except the smell I’d say it would be great. I chose it mostly for the area as I needed to stay in taksim.
