If airbnb ever decide to give training to new hosts they should employ Mersin to give the training. He went to a huge amount of effort to make our trip truly enjoyable, both in communication before and during our trip and making great efforts to ensure the flat was perfect.
The flat is on the 5th floor, so think about the weight of your luggage! It is brand new, spotlessly clean and very well equipped . As it gets very little direct sun and a good breeze it stays pleasantly cool.
It is about a 20 minute walk from Taxim square and the same from the tram stop by Istanbul Modern. If you stay on a Sunday make sure that you visit the market in the next street as it was one of the highlights of our stay, as was the daily visit to the local bakers for breakfast bagels, fresh from the oven.
