I felt the location was wonderful. It took us ~7 minutes walk (albeit uphill) to get to the Hagia Sophia.
The ambiance of the area is beautiful if you want an authentic experience - the cafes, the hookahs, old men chatting late into the evenings etc.
The place itself had everything a family with 2 young kids needed - clean and comfortable beds, 24/7 hot water, WiFi, small kitchen with amenities etc.
But all that is not the best part.
We booked Hidir's place for 7 days but had to leave early because of a family emergency. As soon as I told Hidir, he offered a refund for the remaining days - I didn't even have to ask for it.
I will go there again because while it might be possible to find a fancier place, its terribly hard to find people like Hidir these days.
