Beautiful apartment, centrally located between the main shopping street, restaurants and bars and Galata tower. In a quiet cul de sac. The building and stairwell are very run down and a bit of a shock but the apartment (at the top of 4 long flights of stairs) is magnificent, clean and well equipped with the most amazing old painted walls and original features. We unfortunately had builders noise from early and were met by a cleaning lady who didn’t speak English - so had to guess how things worked. We didn’t meet our super host but she was very kind and concerned about our predicament.
