The place is well located in Taksim, but is on a loud street and is above a bar with loud music. If you're sensitive to noise, this might not be the place for you. The front windows are single-pain, so the street noise comes into the place. The listing mentions that there is a bar on the ground floor, but it doesn't make clear that loud music played starting from the early afternoon. Also the rear fire door was not very secure, and I didn't feel good about leaving my computers and business things in the unit. The TV/cable was also out. I didn't end up staying for these reasons. Lot's of other people seem to like this place, so maybe I was just there on a particularly loud day.
