A great location for us, really close to where we were attending a conference but also a short walk to the nearest public transport (and Taksim Square) to move around the city and to/from the airport bus stop. Some lovely restaurants very nearby also as well as small shops for food. The flat was exactly as described, spotlessly clean and really lovely - plenty space, air conditioned, great kitchen, really great shower and even washing machine, iron/ironing board and hair dryer. We were kindly met by Alexis parents, even though it was late on a Saturday night when we arrived. I highly recommend this place to anyone travelling to Istanbul. Thanks to Alexis and his parents :0)
