Staying here was phenomenal. You can't get a better location than this one. It is 2 minutes from Istikal street, 7 minutes from Taksim square, and 15 minutes from Galata tower. We didn't know that, but cleaning lady comes every 3 days and we were pleasantly surprised when we came back to the apartment. If I can, I would rate this 7 out of maximum 5 stars :)
