From the moment I walked into the apartment and opened the balcony doors onto vibrant Istiklal Street, I knew I had chosen well. The apartment really cannot be better located if you want to feel the pulse and energy of this great city, setting out on foot in all directions. Indeed it's not quiet, but if you want to feel the excitement of this pedestrian thoroughfare, its perfect. The decor was stylish, the apartment bright and well laid out, and the kitchen equipped. Communication with Mehmet and Vera was easy, and they were very responsive to my requests. I would definitely stay here again.
