Kardelen’s place is in the perfect location, especially if you are pressed with time and want to fit everything in! You can walk to almost any Istanbul tourist attraction you want (with the right shoes) and there are lots of cafes and coffee shops and a grocery market near for when you get hungry. The apartment itself is beautiful, and it’s fun to think about the history of the building and of the streets outside, which you can watch from the amazing window seat. I only stayed there for two nights, but wish I could have spent many more!
