The apartment is located very close to Galata Tower and it is in a decent neighborhood. The apartment is spacious, cozy and (very!) clean. Our host is so thoughtful that he provided us with a detailed guide of the city, a local cellphone and a metro card. We love his recommendations for cafes and restaurants! In addition, I have to mention that due to some unexpected emergency we only contacted him at the last minute, and he managed to accommodate our request in a timely manner, and really made us feel at home.
