This was our first trip to Istanbul and we really enjoyed visiting the city. Güner-Berivan was very helpful and gave us lots of good information. He also replied to our notes very quickly. The apartment is located in a neighbourhood just out of the tourist zone, which we prefer. It is right over a bakery that makes Turkish bagels (hot every morning) and across from a fruit store. The apartment does have everything you need, but it is very small. We stayed there for a week, which is the maximum length of stay we would recommend for two people in this space. It does have a large balcony with great views. The only problem we encountered was with the Wi-Fi, it was a bit spotty. Güner-Berivan was very responsive and did his best to fix it. The other note of caution is that this apartment is on the third floor, which in this case means over 70 steps to your suite. The fellow that checked us in did carry one of our large cases up, so that was a great help. Overall, this apartment is a good value.
