This apartment is really in a very nice neighbour hood, very well communicated as in just a few minutes walking you are at Taksim square. The nice little coffee shops in the neighbour hood are great for having breakfasts and people watching.. Communiation with the host was smooth and easy , his friend Mon was there to meet me at the apartment. Very helpful and also easy to communicate with. Would like to stay there again at my next visit to Istanbul and hope it will be available then!
