The place cannot be better located near to Galata Tower......the view on the shared roof top is the best thing about the place. The apartment itself is comfortable, though the apartment 7 that we stayed in had a few problems that we reported to the owner that he hopefully attended to after our departure, such as a broken floorboard outside the bathroom, a leaking sink, and a fridge door that didn't close shut (a footstool was holding it shut when we checked in). The place is rented constantly for short term lets, so there are stains on all of the tables and furnishings. But other than that the place was fantastic and a great base to travel from if touring/visiting Istanbul for a short while.
