-Location: streets around this place are nice and safe, lots of cafes and some bars to go to without having to cross many hills, you will understand the importance of this when you are in Istanbul. Also, many vegan restaurants close by in case you are interested, do yourself a favor and visit Vegan Dükkan and order the manti. The apt was flawlessly clean and very well decorated.

The location is very nice although far from the airport. Breakfast was good and the place as a whole very cozy. The very best part though was the couple running the place. So friendly, so warm hearted. I stayed only one night on my way to Bali. And "of course" the key of my room went to Bali with me. I was able to bring it back on my way back - and got such a warm welcome with breakfast served. If I ever go back to Istanbul, I definately know where I am going to stay at!

We stayed four nights in this comfortable “Junior Suite.” Our host, Ali, was very responsive and met us when we arrived. The apartment was clean, the bedroom was spacious and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was nice and the shower had good water pressure and plenty of hot water. There wasn’t really a kitchen, but there was a fridge, sink and microwave. We asked for additional plates and silverware and then we had everything we needed. In fact, whenever we asked for anything (hangers, for example), we got them quickly and with a smile from the staff. We appreciated that Ali checked in with us each day to make sure everything was ok. The location is great. It was a short uphill walk to the center of town where the main tourist area is. The apartment is up one flight of stairs and we had a nice view over a local mosque. Ali set up an evening dinner/show cruise for us which we enjoyed. Breakfasts were served on the covered rooftop terrace of the hotel next door. If we return to Istanbul in the future, we will certainly stay at Emirhan again. Highly recommended!
