This apartment is very simple, fonctional and really well situated. We didn't know much about Istanbul and realized we were based in the most interesting area. Not into the touristic center but really close from it. Beyoglu is filled with nice restaurants and lovely cafés, and it's a very strategic point for public transport and for walking. The only down side is the noise. The alley is where trucks are delivering merchandise at 5am. Seçkin has been a perfect host. Although the appartment didn't have all the households his description was saying ( Iron, hangers, some kitchen cloths) Seçkin was quick to answer, precise, available and very easy to reach! Enjoy.
