This place is just a few feet from Galata Tower, a happening place from almost 9AM to 2AM. Our family likes being around such places. Lot of eateries and cool street shops in just a few foot steps.
Tram station, Taksim street are just 10 mins walk. Of course Galata Tower is right there.. :)
The building is pretty old (looks like 150Yr old) but the apartment itself is renovated moderately probably to retain some authentic antique look. We appreciated the mix and match.
The tram card provided is every useful. you will need to just top it and use.
Portable Air conditioning units are good enough. But if you need the rooms to be completely chilled, you cannot achieve that. We went in July, after roaming out and walking up to Galata from the Tram station, sometimes, we wished AC was more effective. But it was not bad. with in a few mins of sitting close to the AC.. It was all good.
Over all a great place of stay for a family of four or five. Highly Recommend this place.
