If you want to enjoy the Galata and Taksim area all while being just a tad bit tucked away from the crowds, this is the apartment you are looking for.
The bathroom is on the smaller side but that didn't bother us because we knew exactly why we wanted this apartment (location, cleanliness, and coziness and all of those points were checked)
The washing machine was a very nice bonus for backpackers like us.
I also want to point out that Mehmet responded to some of my messages that were sent well past midnight (even though I didn't expect him too).
Thank you, Mehmet for your hospitality. I would definitely stay here again next time.
