Came to an “apartment” when it was a terrace with apartment like features- pros and cons are as follows:
Pros:
- good location for sultanahmet
- nice view from balcony
- mattress is comfortable
- comfy sofa
Cons:
- no lifts (very steep stairs, be prepared to heave your suitcases up)
- will not be able to sleep properly due to constant racket of the seagulls at night (the roofing is not proper and has a metal sheet which clangs abruptly when those big birds are on it)
- no privacy for WC use as only a partition is there via a sliding door.
- washing machine inconveniantly placed in front of toilet (not leaving adequate space for you to do your business)
- bad smell coming from drains in bathroom area (mostly at night)
- felt the apartment was not cleaned properly as found body hair from previous users
-apartment generally cramped with having such a big sofa
Sad to say I won’t be coming back here. If the cons don’t bother you then this will be an average stay for you.
