Roza & Chiko were very helpful hosts. We stayed here and visited Istanbul for the first time and we loved this place! The location truly is ideal. Its right next to the Galata Tower (walking distance a minute) there is a lot of character and charm in the apartment since it is a little older. Just a side note: since this is in a prime location just keep in mind that it is super busy always and can get loud especially on the weekends. That did not bother us and the noise is not bad for the location being right in the center. I would recommend staying here when you are visiting Istanbul.
