Eyp's place was wonderful. It was charming on the inside, and there were many amenities available. The washing machine was very helpful. Eyp greeting us and helped us take our luggage upstairs, and was very helpful all around.
The flat is on the 5th floor (6th for Americans) and it is about 100 steps to the top. If you are not in shape, then this will be hard for you! But the view of Galata Tower is incredible. There are many shops and restaurants around and lots of activity.
The flat was quiet at night and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was clean with great water pressure. There was a mini fridge but no freezer.
There is an occasional smell of cigarette smoke in the flat, presumably from the shops below, or the flat below. The air conditioner worked well by the bed, but it was a bit small for the flat; we recognize that we were there during the hottest part of the year and that may not be a problem in other months. Eyp easily got us a fan, and we were able to blow the AC with the fan around the flat to make it comfortable.
It was a very good stay, and we recommend it without any reservations.
