Let me start by saying that I loved this place. I’ve stayed in Taksim square before and this place offers good amenities. The apartment is located on the 3rd floor (one apartment per floor, no elevator). Even though the stairs are small, it’s easy to go up. The inside is small but comfortable, except the kitchen which is fairly big.
Pros:
1. Everything is at your doorstep. Supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, banks, pharmacies, etc.
2. 5 minutes walking to Taksim Square
3. The unit has A/C-Heater.
4. Bed is comfortable
5. Closet space is good and there’s a drawer as well.
6. Kitchen has everything you need
7. There’s a washer AND a dryer. Both work well.
8. Host is responsive and amiable
Cons:
1. It’s a busy area with plenty of noise. If you’re a lite sleeper it won’t be good for you. It wasn’t a problem for me.
2. Bathroom is fine but poorly designed. Water from the shower splashes all over the floor.
3. Even though there’s an AC/heater unit, it’s only one. If it’s cold or hot you won’t get to enjoy it unless you’re in the living room.
Overall I had a nice experience and definitely recommend this place.
