3- Is there a specific area in Istanbul that you would like to stay in?
1. In general, we prefer public transit, but will take a taxi if the transit options are not convenient.
2. We're open, but Marriott (for earning or spending) or Hyatt (for spending) would be reasonable options.
3. We're not familiar enough with Istanbul to have a preference. Last time, we stayed at the Conrad.
Nice to know we won't have to carry our large baggage with us.
Thanks for your help.
