Pros:

Dobra lokalizacja. Pyszne śniadanie ( w budynku obok ) Łóżka wygodne a pokoje po zamknięciu okien wyciszone. Choć trudno zaparkować auto a zdarza się żę ktoś zastawi auto , to kierowcy zostawiaja za szybą nr telefonu żeby do nich zadzwonić by mogli odblokować samochód.

Cons:

Parking bezpłatny jest dostepny wszędzie ale żeby zaparkować trzeba sie trochę najeżdzić.
Wyposażenie kuchni trochę jak z przypadku: sztućce w porzadku, ale patelnia bardzo duża , trochę tudno na niej np,usmażyć jajecznicę z 5 jajek, garnki też duże.

Pros:

Доброжелательный персонал. Отличный напор воды в душе. Доступность общественного транспорта.

Cons:

В описании указана бесплатная общественная парковка, но возможности припарковаться нет абсолютно, тесные Стамбульские улочки рядом, абсолютно заставленные. К счастью, недалеко от отеля, не доезжая его метров 200 , справа от дороги по ходу движения есть парковка, если повезет с местами, можно встать за 550 лир в сутки. Само здание, Где расположены апартаменты, старое, все требует ремонта.

Pros:

It's in a really good location and the room was pretty comfortable for the price.

Cons:

Parking is miserable! If you have a car there is an autopark around the corner from it if you're facing the hotel take that street to the left if it's not blocked and then go turn left and it's about maybe 75 yd down the street.

Не рекомендую, больше не остановлюсь
Pros:

Расположение довольно удобное. До Истикляль 5-7 минут, до площади Таксим — 15 минут. В апартаментах две комнаты, это плюс, можно было поработать или посидеть, не мешая тому. кто спит. Также имеется минимальный набор посуды, стиралка и посудомоечная машина (но к ней не было капсул, поэтому приходилось мыть все равно руками). Есть маленькая плита на 2 конфорки.

Cons:

Вайфая не было от слова совсем. Персонал каждый день обещал починить, мы даже самостоятельно провели диагностику, выдали список рекомендаций, нам обещали каждый день, что все будет, но так ничего и не пытались починить.
За кроватью были окурки! Это прям совсем жесть... Хотя остальная квартира +- нормально убрана.
В апреле было довольно прохладно и влажно, отапливались старым кондицинером, который очень громко гудел. В следующий раз не выберу это место и другим не рекомендую. Особенно, если вам критично наличие сети.
Уборки за 6 дней ни разу не сделали, чайник отсутствовал, пришлось просить, чтобы принесли.
Завтрак не стоит своих денег, очень скудный (яйцо, пологурца, полпомидора, немного оливок, ложка меда, долька апельсина, чай/кофе, хлеб) лучше за эту же сумму прогуляться на минуту дальше до небольшой закусочной с готовыми блюдами на углу.

Basic apartment accomodation central to Taksim district
Pros:

Good location in what felt like a grittier area a 5 minute walk downhill from the heart of taksim.

Kind staff who were helpful.

Apartment had a laundry machine that worked and the bathroom was very clean.

Cons:

Not sure how they measured, but it seemed.smaller than advertised

There were a lot of ants in the unit. Small ones,.but we did end up with some stowaways in our luggage.

While some aspects of the unit were very clean, it's clear it rarely gets a deep clean.

Good to note that the property has no elevator and units with a balcony will have a hike up the stairs (64 steps).

El horror turco
Cons:

La persona que nos atendió super antipático.
El apartamento horrible,había una ventana rota,encontramos un rollo de papel higiénico dentro de la cama,los baños super pequeños ,el agua de la ducha salía por todos los lados.
El desayuno fatal y el comedor era penoso.
De hecho teníamos cuatro noches y nos marchamos al segundo día volviendo a alquilar otro apartamento.

Disappointed for the price paid. Some of the issue could have been it was a holiday weekend.
Pros:

The location was good.

Cons:

It certainly didn’t ruin the trip, but it should be mentioned that the Internet was terrible, the apartment was on the fourth floor with no elevator, it was very tiny, and it had described that there was a TV and sofa bed however, the TV seemed to only work if there was a DVD in it, and there was no sofa bed, just a chair that maybe did pull out to be a bed. The apartment itself was difficult to navigate around if there was any amount of luggage and the kitchen was very difficult to work in, and very dimly lit. The toilet wouldn’t flush several times and once there was no hot water, even though none had been used.
