The location and the view are, as everyone has raved about, fantastic. If you're a morning person, you can see the most beautiful sunrises over the bosphorous. If you're not a morning person, you still have amazing day and nighttime views of the Bosphorous. It's right near lots of things but surprisingly quiet given its location in a huge metropolis (it's a city apartment, so there's some street noise--but much less than I would have thought). It has more character than most full-time AirBnBs--and did I mention the view?!
(the one weird quirk to know about beforehand is that the bathroom has a frosted/clearish window--and is right next to the bed. So either go with someone you know really well or someone who's willing to either move to the living room or look the other way when you're in the loo!) :)
It really was a great place to explore this fabulous city (sights, food, drinks, shops all in the neighborhood)--if you can drag yourself away from the view long enough to get out of the apartment!
Hope to visit again!
