We had a great stay at Doruk's place in Galata. The location was convenient to all forms of transportation but also easy (at least in downhill direction!) walk to many desired activities/sights. Doruk was extremely easy to communicate with from the very beginning, supplied us with lots of information and suggestions on the area and took us on a walking tour of the neighborhood our first evening there. The apartment is just as described and pictured--clean, comfortable, minimalist in design. Highly recommend and would love to return!
