The place is on the Asian side of Istanbul and is just one block away (5 minutes walking) from the Bagdat street, which has a long shopping avenue ,beautiful cafes and bars. On Bagdat street you can take a direct minibus to Taksim (European side) which will take about 20 minutes, of course if there is no traffic! Or you can go to Kadiköy in 10 minutes and take the metrobus to go to the European side. (which we prefer and it takes around half an hour to be on the other side!) At Kadıkoy you can also use the sealines to cross to the ther side and enjoy the Bosphorus view on your sea ride:) The apartment can accodomodate 3 people. One room has a double bed so can accommodate 1 person or a couple. Additionally there is also a couch in the living room, which you can easily use to sleep. ( We used to sleep there before we bought a bed:) The apartment is sunny and full of light during the day as the place has too many windows, and the house is surrounded with trees which gives the apartment a pleasant atmosphere. It has a small cute balcony too. The apartment has a big TV, Wifi, an iron,a clothes hanger,an electric fan, towels, sheets, blankets, a dish washer, a microwave, an oven and a coffee maker.The kitchen if fully equipped and there are 2 toilets. So hope it will be enough to enjoy your stay! By the way, 10-15 minutes away from home, at Bostancı you can also use the sealines to go the close Princess islands like Buyukada and enjoy daily trips
