Faruk’s apartment is such a lovely place to stay. You’re just in front of the beautiful Galata tower which is in a very lively neighbourhood. The evenings were pretty quiet even though the restaurants and cafes were still open. You can reach most of the sights by foot and the next metro station ( Sishane) is just a few steps away.
I definitely recommend the rice and chicken place just on the other side of the street. The food tastes like someone’s mum just made it. Delicious!
The apartment seems to be newly renovated as everything is in perfect condition. The bed is comfortable, the shower is great and the washing machine is just super practical for a longer stay.
There was also a small welcome present in the fridge - super cute!
I had 2-3 questions / issues during my stay and always got a reply within 5min. I felt very comfortable and safe and would highly recommend this place.
