Guest Reviews
The view is wonderful, in front of the Bosphorus Strait. I will come back
2. Good location: easy to get to the main museums and sightseeing;
3. Good kitchenware;
4. Friendly helpful owner;
2. The apartment has everything you need for a long stay: utensils for cooking, washing machine, cooler with drinking water, barbecue and a large terrace.
3. There is heated air conditioning, which helped on a cold night.
4. The apartment was quiet, although there was a noisy street with merchants nearby.
THERE ARE SEVERAL FLIGHTS OF STAIRS INCLUDING A NARROW STEEP CLIMB INTO THE APARTMENT!
I've highlighted that because this alone would exclude it as suitable for some people.
But it is so worth it for the views.
The apartment is basic but very clean, comfortable and spacious. The kitchenette has everything you need to cook with, and with several small supermarkets nearby, it's a great way to save some money.
The bathroom is clean and shower pressure is great. The water does on occasion turn off, but not for long and not often.
The views! Omg. From the bedroom, the kitchen and balcony. Every window has stunning views.
The balcony is a great place to relax to watch the sunrise and sunset, not to mention watching Istanbul light up as the sun goes down. The Blue Mosque is clearly seen, which is phenomenonal.
Aydin, the owner, is so incredibly welcoming and helpful. And his neighbours are so friendly and helpful, despite not knowing a lot of English.
The Grand Bazar is a 5 minute walk and the rest of the cities highlights are incredibly close.
It's also basic. It's not the Hilton. But it's charm is quintessentially Turkish. If you have realistic expectations, you'll love it as much as we did.
The surrounding streets are in a residential neighbourhood with stores. It is busy with families living life. Some people may not be happy with this due to the rubbish and noise (especially during the day).
If you really enjoy experiencing the cities you visit, you can't go past staying here.
We loved Istanbul and our stay at Istanblue was a big reason for this.
