This is a great place. Yes, we experienced a few hours of water and electricity outage - which is quite common in Turkey - but it was solved very promptly. Yes, the toilet is right in the bedroom which might be considered uncomfortable by some. But when it comes to genius loci of this place, everything is forgotten. I believe you will not find a place in Istanbul with better view of Galata Tower. At night, when the tower is lit, this view becomes beyond fantastic. Can not be explained, needs to be experienced. I will definitely be back to this place very soon!
