What a view!! The view from the rooftop is incredible; you can see the Galata tower, Bosphorus, everything. It's also in the idea location from which to explore Istanbul. The apartment was amazing, as well-- modern decoration, very comfortable, lots of coffee ;)
Aytunc, the host, was incredibly helpful and helped my friends with their luggage and even took them for a lovely Turkish breakfast! I personally didn't meet Aytunc because I arrived after my friend checked in, but she was very happy with the welcome, and he was very responsive and went out of his way to make us feel welcome and took care of anything that came up along the way. We would all definitely stay here again!!!
