Like other reviewers have mentioned, the property is very well located next to Taksim Square, except for the steep five minute walk up to it. Walking down the hill will get you to the tram station and the Bosphorus in about 7 minutes. And that tram takes you directly to Sultanahmet ( spice bazaar, Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Great Bazaar) in just a few stops.
The living room space is a bit small, but the three sizable rooms make up for it. One item to be aware of, for those who like their privacy. Only the master bedroom has black out curtains and even those curtains cover only about 90% of the windows. The rest of the bedrooms and living room have sheer curtains. Maybe something the owners may consider adding in the future. Communicating with the owners were easy and fast. Omer allowed us to check in early and met us at Taksim Square to ensure we would find the apt. Without his assistance, it would’ve been tough, as the building was not numbered. Neither were many of the other buildings there. All in all, a great stay without incident.
