The location is perfect. Less than 10 minutes walk to and from the airport bus stop. With just one easy minor slope to handle, as you know Istanbul slopes can be steeped in other areas. This is perfect and easy.
The apartment is also just a few steps to bustling Istikal Street with all te shopping and restaurants. Steps away from the metro, bus stops, funicular to take you to anywhere around Istanbul.
Fortunately, the location is also on a quiet corner of a very busy area, nestled between the Taksim Mosque and a church and the French Consulate and relatively safe.
The apartment is spacious. The beds are comfortable. The Internet is working properly.
There is no lift, so pack light.
Mehmet is a great host and always checking if we need anything during our stay.
