The Balat district where I stayed for 16 nights is a quaint neighborhood of Istanbul, full of antique shops and various shops. It is an ancient neighborhood, of the people, lively but in the end quiet, in 20 minutes by bus you get to sultanhamet or Taksim. The apartment of memhet is really nice and comfortable, starting from the external armored door in combination up to the inner walls of the apartment with exposed bricks. The services are ok, nothing is missing! Very beautiful!!
