This apartment is in an adorable part of Istanbul, and you can see Galata tower when you walk outside. It's about 10 mins walk to the tram to take you to the Old Center and near lots of shops, cafes, and restaurants. This particular apt was on the 1st floor (not ground floor) so stairs are required. The area is pretty loud at night and many mosques nearby so it can be quite loud with the prayer calls and people. The windows offer little barrier to this outside noise so I would suggest earplugs if you are a light sleeper. The apt was very clean, had central heating, and had lots of guidebooks which was a nice touch. Hand soap and towels are provided, nothing in the showers. There is a washer and dryer with laundry detergent provided and they provided an Istanbulkart card (for public transportation) which was also a nice touch. The wifi was a bit slow/weak and did not reach into all of the bedrooms. Overall, I felt that the price is a bit steep.
