Overall disappointing stay. The location is pretty great. 10 minute walk from Hagia Sofia and Grand Bazaar. Lots of good food and shopping nearby.
These are newly but somewhat poorly renovated apartments. The bathroom floor wasn’t terribly clean. There were plumbing issues with the sink, shower, and drain. there was a very unpleasant smell coming from the drain. The shower broke and flooded the bathroom. The leaky pipes under the sink damaged my personal items.
this apartment isn’t owned/managed by an individual but some kind of vacation rental company. It’s missing that personal touch that I like about most Airbnb’s I’ve stayed.
The virtual customer service team members that I spoke with was very generous and said they’d give me a partial refund for the trouble with the shower. I was also told a manager would reach out. it’s been a week and there has been no real follow up.
If you’re planning to stay in the area I’d recommend choosing something else. There is no shortage of small but great hotels nearby with cheaper rates, great amenities, and better maintenance.
