We had such a wonderful time at this airbnb. Hands down best location; across the bridge is way too touristy, but this place was right outside the Galata tower, with lots of cute restaurants, cafes, and bars, transport, and also a great shopping street (a few touristy things but good, not overwhelming).
The apartment is very cute and stylish - hipster, with exposed brick and wooden floors.
Communication was great - our host was very helpful, replied immediately, and gave us great recommendations around the area. She was flexible with coordinating with multiple people as we all arrived at different times.
The shower is big, heating is good, wifi is strong, beds are nice, pick up and drop off for the key is simple, etc.
I stay in 6-10 airbnbs per year and this was a 10 out of 10.
Thank you again!
