Pros:

La localisation est vraiment idéale, à quelques minutes à pied d’Hagia Sofia, de la Mosquée Bleue, etc…

Cons:

Il n’y a aucune isolation sonore, on entend tout ce qui se passe dans le couloir/escalier, dehors, et surtout, dans notre cas, les clients de la chambre du dessus qui marchaient très lourdement, parfois couraient et sautaient jusqu’à 1h/2h du matin sans aucun respect ni considération pour les autres.

Ce problème nous a malheureusement un peu gâché notre expérience à Istanbul, nous essayions de rattraper nos nuits le matin.

Ok but I would choose something else
Pros:

The place is conveniently located in the city centre and close to public transport and main attractions

Cons:

The property was not well kept and the photos do not reflect the status of the property. It would benefit from some reno.

Pros:

La ubicación, es muy céntrico la verdad.

Cons:

La cama era un poco pequeña y entraba mucha luz en la habitación. La distribución del baño también era algo incomoda aunque la ducha estaba bien de tamaño. El WiFi no funcionaba bien y la televisión no dejaba poner ninguna plataforma para ver pelis o series, avisamos al encargado que se pasó y dijo que al dia siguiente intentaría solucionar pero nada...

Perfect location, good budget option.
Pros:

We were in one of the top apartments (2nd floor), 2 bedrooms, one is only half detached from a living+kitchenett area. Beds were OK, although the double beds a bit narrow, we used separate beds with my spause. Cleanliness was OK. The kitchenett is quite good, there was a surprise microvave, and a sizable round table to sit 4 comfortably. For a couple of nights it is absolutely livable. The best is the location, you have everything locally, convenience shop, supermarket, small restaurants, breakfast places, taxi station, but the street itself is relatively quiet, little traffic. It is on a steep slope, also a seconbd floor could be a problem, buit it was not for us. Blue Mosque, tram stop are in 10-15 mins walking distance, T1 is a very frequent service, you can reach everything. The owner is nice and communicative.

Cons:

We booked it rather cheap, but you get what you pay for. If you can be annoyed by tiny imperfections, it is not your place (there are quite many), but if you want a basically working place and came to enjoy Istanbul, and fit for a little uphill walk, then it is perfect. Toilet is leaning one side, sink tap dripping, contact problem with one lamp, little space in bathroom for your stuff, nothing dealbreaker for us.
