As always, I will attempt a fair review (Pros, Cons and Conclusion)
Pros:
1. Top floor. Excellent views. Large terrace. Right opposite the Bosphorous.
2. Restaurants and Grocery shops, markets at walking distance
3. Large house, decorated tastefully, airy and open.
Cons:
1. Disturbed nights. On first night, the building fire alarm ran for a long time. On the second night, there was a party on the floor just below. Sounds of loud music and people on the steps kept me awake from 11 PM to 2 AM.
2. Poor light-proofing in bedrooms. Thin curtains. Too much light all through the night.
3. Difficult to climb a floor and then a tiny elevator. Esp with luggage. Housekeeper helped during check-in.
3. The check-out time was 11. The housekeeper rang the bell at 10:45 AM and waited just outside the door for us to leave. As soon as we stepped out she closed the door. We felt pushed out, esp when we did not overstay and had arranged taxi for 11 AM.
Conclusion: Will not book this unit again.
