Ugur checked us in with an introduction to what could be found locally, a large bottle of water to carry us for a few days, and was available for regular communication as needed. We stayed in the street-level (plus a few steps) apartment, which has a little balcony with two chairs and room for drying clothes on the rack included with the place. The air conditioner worked well, the kitchen / eating space had all we needed for light snacks, noting we mostly ate out for our meals, and it worked well for three of us. The three flights up to the shared rooftop terrace were worth it for the view of the Sea of Marmara and the lovely evening breeze while the sun set. The location was just right for Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and Topkali Palace and lots of doner / kebap options. The tram is nearby and easily takes you to spots down the hill from Beyoglu & Galeta Tower where there is nightlife. Thank you for your hospitality.
