We enjoyed our one week stay at Melihs apartment. It is located a bit far from the center of Istanbul but that was okay for us as we had already spent time touring the sites of Istanbul and were looking for a more relaxed and quiet location before flying out. You can access the Metro nearby and with a few changes get to central Istanbul in about an hour. The apartment complex is in a working class neighborhood but is a 15 minute walk to the Mall of Istanbul and you have several markets just outside the complex. The complex has security, a gym , bath facilities and indoor pool. Also a small café is located within the complex. We used both the gym and pool and found them okay for our needs. The wifi was quick, smart TV was great and the bed and living room were comfortable. For those not concerned about being a little far from central Istanbul, this is a great option and value.
