Overall we had a pleasant stay at this apartment. Although it faces a busy street, the apartment is pretty quiet inside and the bedrooms are very quiet. The apartment is nicely furnished, spacious, and comfortable. It is convenient to Galata Tower and a few public transit options (if you can figure them out). We would have liked a few more amenities -- for example, there was a coffee machine but no coffee to drink -- and some basic cooking supplies (pepper, salt, oil, etc.)
