The apartment is wonderfully located right at European edge of the Bosporus, looking down on the Dolmabahçe Palace and Mosque. The view of these monuments, the Bosporus, and the Asian side of Istanbul is stunning, especially in the morning and at night. It helps that the apartment comes with an exclusive deck! I would give 5 stars for the the location and the view alone, but the hosts are also wonderful, flexible, and responsive. The apartment is cozy and very well-appointed. Great place for 1-3 people!
