We stayed there for 10 days, the appartment was very clean, it was like the pictures. The elevator was very welcome as we had heavy bags and it is on the 4th floor. The neighborhood is okay not too loud or too calm, seemed safe to us as there was a police patrol not far. The location is really good. it is right behind istiklal street which is a landmark when you are visiting İstanbul (walking distance like 5 mn). If you like museums or shopping you are served there as there are both walking distance (Pera museum is like right in front of the appartment). It is also not far from the city. we were never more than hour from the places we wanted to go (either going asian side, besiktas, ortakoy, sultanahmet, etc.). we had a car and except for the crazy İstanbul traffic it was very practical. if you dont there is a metro station not far away, there are taxi stops and bus stops close by too. the only issue we had with the car was finding a parking spot close to the house. the street is narrow and quickly full at night so you might have to park a bit far sometimes but it is mangeable. For the house interior, it is very cute and comfy. loved the mezzanine bed although it is hotter up there hahaha. house has all the essentials. we were very happy with our choice. just wished it had regular tv and not only apple tv.
