Honestly, could not recommend this more for first time (and returning) visitors to istanbul. It is within walking distance to almost EVERYTHING - we only took a taxi twice. The room itself is super clean (very hotel feeling rather than air bnb). Ako was an amazing host, took us on a tour of the area when we first arrived and was on the other end of a text 24/7 (even brought me allergy tablets i desperately needed). I will definitely be returning, had a lovely lovely experience !!
