A great place for three, was just a little bit dusty but otherwise well maintained.
The apartment is on the top floor of the building with a very steep and narrow staircase leading there, so if you count on an elevator: there isn’t one.
As a reward for the stairway hassle, the windows and the balcony feature a breathtaking view over the bosphorus strait. Both rooms are equipped with air conditioners, so the heat is not a problem.
The apartment is practically located amidst a dense market area, so it’s virtually surrounded by shops and cafes of all sorts. On the downside, the streets are narrow and traffic jammed during the day, so forget about calling a cab to this place.
On the upside, a ton of public transportation is available within 10-15 minutes walk area: Eminönü bus tram and ferry terminal to the north, Marmaray underground railway + T1 tram to the east, a bunch of T1 tram stations to the south and an M2 green line subway station to the west.
All the Sultanahmet sights are within 20 mins by feet as well, including the Blue Mosque, St Sophia, Topkapi palace and Gülhane park.
Overall a great place for the value, Sinan was always very responsive and helpful, and the personnel greeted us and checked us in at a very late hour no problem. Thanks!
