Muge couldn't have been more responsive to our questions both before we arrived and during our stay. The neighborhood is great - close to Taksim Square for transit, as well as the streetcar line, and a quick walk to Cihangir, a hip Istanbul neighborhood with a good dining scene. We'd be happy to stay here again.

One drawback to this room is that it's on the ground floor, next to the entrance, and people do not always keep their voices down when returning to the building after a night of clubbing. If you're not a night owl, you might want to look at Rooms 3 and higher, or possibly Room 1 (daylight basement).
