Beautiful apartment with an incredible location and view. It has been recently and tastefully updated. You are in the heart of Galata and a short walk to Istiklal/taksim shopping area. I would certainly recommend it to those who want to get a unique Istanbul trip. Do note that it can get very noisy at night, especially during the weekend- bring ear plugs. Also, there is no elevator (most apartments in this area don’t) - so be prepared to carry your luggage up and down narrow and long stairs.
