This place is one of a kind you can find in Istanbul. Also Itir is a very good person whom you would want to meet and talk with. I could feel the kind consideration inside this place. It has a nice terrace overlooking the whole Istanbul(maybe not the whole, haha) and balconies on both sides, which also have nice chairs and tables, really if you are looking for some relax inside Istanbul, this is the place to go! Because you feel like you get more calm energy of the city just with that million dollar view. And also inside was carefully done with good consideration. I was welcomed with lily flower scents in the living room(2nd level), and was surprised by huuuuge view on the rooftop terrace! Kitchen is fully equipped. There are a lot of books, and the selection is good, including things like architectural understanding of historical landmarks in Istanbul, and guidebooks, so on, and modern Turkish literature, philosophy, etc. And that's additional plus point for foreign travelers. I guarantee you would spend whole days there reading one of the books in a cozy sofa with the view of outside, including Galata tower and one of the mosques, in rainy day.. I hesitated to write a review because I didnt want too many people to know, so that I cannot go back if it's fully booked for months on. It has a piano! And I played a little bit. You do need some exercise to go up the stairs, though, but it was ok. And you get a literally fantastic high rooftop as a reward.
And the 1st level has 2 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms. One of it has a bathtub. The mattress was a very comfy one.
I only stayed there short days, but I would have booked this house for months. You are lucky if you stay here, because, you would not find among airbnb listings, that has this high floor and the panoramic view, which is not blocked by other building. The height is like, a little lower than the Galata tower.
