Inexpensive pension....Good, clean rooms, and an extremely kind, helpful staff. Nice rooftop views and bar.   Moonlight Pension is located just 5 minutes by foot from the famous Sultanahmet (Blue) Mosque, Aya Sofya Museum, Topkapi Palace and the Archaeological Museum, plus scores of restaurants, shops and other places of interest.   The Egyptian Bazaar and Grand Bazaar are about 15 minutes by foot and contain thousands of shops. We are also five minutes from the Tram (Sultanahmet Station) which runs down to the Eminonu District where you will find the Central Train Station and ferries to all areas of Istanbul.   On Wednesdays, there is a farmers' market with produce, clothing and household goods for sale.
