    We chose this apartment because of its amazing price. Despite being quite affordable, the location was very convenient for us, with the downtown area easily accessible by foot or by bus. The apartment met our expectations - simple but sufficient for our needs. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option close to the city, this is a solid pick.

    Location is perfect, a 10-15 min walk to Hagia Sophia, The Blue Mosque, the Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace, a 30 min walk to the Grand Bazaar. Lots of great and affordable restaurants around, lots of markets for food and drinks or souvenirs (they are a lot cheaper here than at the bazaar btw). Easy to get a taxi if you need it. Good Turkish breakfast was included.
