Family of 6 with 3 small kids staying for a month. There were 6 of us including 3 kids under 10 so we needed a space with enough room and a central location. This was ideal on all fronts. There was plenty of room with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathroom, a separate living room and a mini kitchen in addition to a full kitchen. The location is about 5 minutes to Galata Tower and 5 minutes to Ishtikal St. 15 minutes to Taksim square and access to plenty of public transportation including subway (sishane), tram, and Ferry (Karakoy). we were on the 4th floor so moving luggage was a lot of work and each day moving up and down the stairs proved a challenge with small kids and older grandparent but we have better calve muscles and glutes now. all of us. Ferhat was an awesome host and helped with a lot. he tried to make our stay very comfortable. the only thing about the space is one room the blinds were not fixed so it got very hot and the living room AC would not get as cold. the views are amazing and you have access to a Terrace which allows for great sun rises and sunsets. use them and take advantage of the terrace! also, there are mosquitos so bring mosquito spray or something as 3 of us kept getting bit even though we were on the 4th floor. if you keep windows closed, then you should be fine. we otherwise have very fond memories and really enjoyed our month stay here.
