Perfect location steps from Galata tower and all the artsy shops and restaurants. You can easily walk to bridge, ferries/boat tours , spice market. Taxi to Hagia Sofya etc (really glad we didn’t decide to stay in that area). Galata area is much more chill yet still touristic.
Seda’s place is up a few flights of stairs so if you can’t do stairs, this isn’t the place for you. Otherwise, it’s perfect, best location you’ll find. The apartment is simple, lovely, roomy enough for our family of 3. Would recommend to my friends.
