Ideal apartment for two and if you want to easily reach all main attractions. The location is perfect, Istiklal (main trading street in the city full of shops) is 2-3 minutes walk from the apartment, plenty of bars/cafes/small grocery shops are nearby. The neighborhood is quite noisy (and note that at 06-30 am each day a muezzin calls to the morgning prayer), but you have to be ready for this if you are coming to Istanbul. The apartment had all the amenities we needed and even more. Best of all is a view from the apartment - almost panoramic view of Galata tower and sorrounding areas, Bosphorus and Golden Horn, really magnificent! The check in and check out were simle, Damla was always ready to help and communication was easy, she always quickly responded to any our queries.
