Great apartment right near Galata Tower! I really enjoyed staying here as the host was extremely responsive and helpful! I had to leave for the airport at 4 a.m. and he helped me schedule a taxi (for a way better price than I was getting from other sources) and helped to make everything frictionless.
The flat is on the top floor with no elevator so something to consider if you are older or out of health.
Other than that it has great views of the surrounding area. I would recommend this flat to anyone visiting Istanbul and wanting to be in a great location.
In response to others claiming there isn't hot water - this is not true. Contrary to that the water could go almost too hot. You have to turn on the hot water heater in the closet next to the TV - it's as easy as turning a nob to a new setting.
