The flat is great - clean, comfortable, beautiful. Furniture is new, Fully equiped kitchen. Safe and interesting area. We liked it even more than in the photos) The flat has everything - literally) and even more for living - kitchenware, washing mashine....The house is on the hill, so the view from the bedroom is stunning. Kerem is an excellent host, you get everything you need in terms of help or information. If you plan to see not only European part but Asian too - this is the best choice from commuting point of view. You walk down 15 min to the ferry station and in 20 min you are in Asian side. Yildiz park (20 min walk from the flat) is must visit - really beautiful. To go to Sultanahmet area or Galata tower - you need to take a bus and a tram - but it doesn't take much time. I liked Besiktas neighbourhood more than these areas in terms of living. Definitely recommend))))
