This place was so beautiful and very wonderful to stay at. Yasemin and her husband were extremely hospitable from the moment they met us and spent a long time giving us plenty of advice on where to go and local events. The location of the apartment was in a very trendy area near many local shops and a busy shopping/eating area. Also, it is conveniently located near a metro stop. I would highly recommend staying at this place if you want to have a pleasant time in Istanbul.
