I enjoyed my stay thanks to the very welcoming host. He was easy to reach and took care of everything I asked for. It was a bit humid at first but with AC, it was no longer a problem. Location was nice. There is a Tram and bus station within 50meters. If you don't mind walking, I would recommend walking to the Dolmabahce palace. It takes about 20min. Taksim square takes about 5 to 10 min but it's a bit of hike up the hills. only downside was that the building next to it was under construction and it was a bit noisy in the morning, but not that disturbing. Overall, it was nice and I would definitely recommend this place.
