Super helpful and friendly host and receptionist. Instant communication (at ALL hours). Receptionist speaks good English. Even the cleaners were super friendly! Booked here last minute after having the worst experience at Nova Pera and this property felt heaven sent! We stayed for 3 days. It completely surpassed our expectations and we wish we spent our whole 2 weeks there. The interior design is quirky and cool and it is VERY CLEAN. Full amenities more than expected (even a dish washer with free soap). Very close to istiklal street and local shops close by. They also kept our suitcases in their office til 6pm for free because we had an evening flight - this was so helpful and allowed us to enjoy our last day in Istanbul! Only downside was the room with the extra bed was quite tight for 3 adults with their suitcases. Despite this I would definitely recommend and return when I'm back in Taksim! :)
