Bugra's loft is pure esthetic pleasure, with a delicately preserved atmosphere of an old building with marble staircases, high ceilings, wooden flooring and authentic brickwork. The view from the terrace is to die for; the Golden Horn bridges and Sultanahmet mosques are all yours along with seagulls and tiled roofs. Fantastic location, lively but safe and quiet neighborhood. As for amenities, you have all you need and even more. Bugra is a most considerate and responsive host, easy to communicate with. The climb upstairs can be a bit challenging but if you feel fit enough you'll get the best place to stay in Istanbul.
