This is a great place to stay for a short trip to Istanbul. Mert is a wonderful host who responds to messages quickly and makes himself available should you need help with anything. The rooms are cozy and clean, and the location is a perfect place from which to explore the city. There are tons of eating options minutes away, and the pier is a 5-10 minute walk away, too. If you're a light sleeper make sure to bring your ear plugs because the walls are thin and you can hear street noises at all hours. And if you take the shuttle option provided (which I recommend, because it's very convenient), make sure you check with the driver that you're being taken to the correct airport on your way back (there are two main ones in Istanbul).
