The place location is wonderful (at the end of taksim street slightly before the slope that will take you to galata tower) strategic location that is next to a metro station, and all the nice restaurants (Mado which is in the next building; yesen burger: in the same building; the famous and tasty biliçe kabab in a 1 min walk; and coffee shops ( ex: Narmanli han which is a court full of coffee shops); mini-carrefour and gratis in 1 min walk; it is on the main road where you feel safe and accessible to everything. The apartment is modernly renovated; spacious 2 rooms; open space that combines one couch next to the tv, one dinning room with 6 chairs, you can find washing machine, dishwasher, refrigerator, coffee machine, and all the needed kitchenware, plenty of towels of different sizes were available and bedsheets; great heating system and hot water is always available; it was the perfect home matching the need of our family ( my husband and I , 2 daughters (15,14 years old), one child ( 18 months old); the owner welcomed us at arrival and offered his support if we needed anything during our stay and we did contact him and he was responsive. He was there when we left although it was late at night and he arranged our transportation to the airport and helped us with the luggage. To be honest this apartment was worth its money value, with so many advantages that compensate the only disadvantage which is the stairs as this apartment comes in a compound style building ( 2 connected buildings) and the elevator is in the other building if you want to take it (it will take u to the 5th floor then you need to take 1 floor to the roof then a corridor to reach the other building then 2 floors down to reach the apartment which is on the 4th floor (which is a long process that we didn’t prefer) or you can climb the 4 floors which was a bit hard while holding a child and a stroller. Again with all the advantages the stair would be a minor thing if the visitors are not elders, people with disabilities, or has strollers..
we wish Mr. Murad (the owner) all the best and we thank him for contributing to making our vacation great and memorable. We highly recommend to use this apartment
