Truly fantastic space for the high techno scene of Istanbul with well-projected lights and the concept. It is located unpredictable and unusual area for an underground culture between luxury restaurants and hotel chains. The drinks are super expensive. Enjoyed every beat of the DJ who brought Berlin to Istanbul.
