We absolutely loved this apartment & Hatice was a great host. The apartment is exactly as the pictures show (except the furniture has been changed) and the views are even more phenomenal in person. The location was great for us because we ended up going to Istiklal Cadessi almost every night. Cabbing from the apartment to anywhere in the city was always 11 TL or less.
Having her cafe in the same building was very nice, especially when my sister was sick & I was able to run down to the cafe to get her tea.
We also recommend having Hatice arrange your ride to/from the airport.
This apartment felt like home for the 4 nights we were there & we were very sad to leave. Hopefully we'll be back someday soon :)
