The place is in very good location for visiting Istanbul as a tourist as most attractions are walkable. The apartment itself is also very comfortable. The host Necati was very helpful and generous with his recommendations on best local restaurants and places to shop. The apartment is on the third floor and there is no lift in the building, this was fine with us but something to consider for elderly visitors or those with a lot of luggage. We would stay here again if we visit Istanbul in the future.
