As always, all apartments have pros and cons, so i will try my best to describe everything!
Pros:
- Recep is an amazing host, that helped us with every questio
- Apartment is big, there is everything that you will need to live, to cook, to spend your time in the evenings
- One of the best views that we ever had in Instanbul, and we were there a lot of times.
- Apartment is in the very center of the tourist life, there are a lot of bars and restaurants in the area, but its both pros and cons.
Cons:
- It was very hard to sleep there because of the noise from bars outside, and bars are literally from all sides. Friday-Sunday nights loud music will go on until 3am at least, even its forbidden. I've measured 85db in the night with open windows, 55db with closed windows (windows were really good with a really great sound isolation), so with -35db ear plugs you will be able to sleep. Ear plugs are your best friends in Istanbul!
- If you will decide, that its better to go to the bar instead of trying to sleep and you will get drunk, it will be little bit hard to climb upstairs to the 7th floor :D
