Zehra is very firendly and helpful. She accomodated our late arrival and helped us make a reservation at a lovely neighborhood restaurant--Dem--, which has a great view and good food, of course. The apartment is very spacious and clean and you can't beat its location. In only a few minutes of walking you can be either at Galata tower or on the seashore. Close to all kinds of transportation too. We loved our stay and would return in the future.

Quick Tip: There is street noise, so you should probably sleep with the windows closed. There is A/C, but you need to run it early enough to be ready by the night. We prefered the breeze that comes with open windows, but it came at the price of noise and mosquitoes... :)
