What a fantastic place to stay in Istanbul! Two friends and I were travelling together so we decided to rent an apartment - and what a fabulous one we did. We managed to each have our own room (as we converted the sofa in the living room into a bed) as the apartment is so spacious. It was very clean and had everything we needed, including nice touches like a phone with credit on it and some guides for our stay.

The area is perfect. I wouldn't have wanted to stay anywhere else in Istanbul as this is where it's at. Minutes from Galata Tower, a short walk to public transportation, and so, so many cool bars and restaurants to explore!

Izet and Doret were great hosts, helpful in getting to the apartment and flexible with us too. It was a perfect stay and I'd stay here again for sure. One small tip is to bring ear plugs simply because some mornings builders got working and [mostly] chatting early!
