Great space. Close to tram line to get to Sultanahmet for Hagia Sophia/Topkapı Palace, close to Kabataş ferry for access to Asian side or Princes’ Islands, close to funicular to Taksim to avoid walking the infamous Cihangir hills, walkable to Dolmabahçe, Galataport, and others.
The apartment itself is comfortable and spacious enough for our two children to not feel cramped, and there is also an elevator to get you to and from the 4th floor. We did have to take two trips and fold our stroller to get into the elevator, but that is quite normal for Istanbul.
Altuğ and Yakub were extremely helpful with our requests, and even procured an Istanbulkart for us to use all the above public transportation.
We hope to stay here again!
