Excellent location in Istanbul, highly recommend the area! It is a few minutes walk to a metro station, Galata tower and the new Galata Port. Apartment is located in a safe area close to local stores and cafes and does not have much traffic passing by it.
The hosts were super communicative prior to check in and I would stay with them again. There were a few minor issues with our wifi which they promptly fixed for us. Only negative is that we had a bit of uncomfortable sleep due to pillows that were too soft for our liking.
