The flat is a 1 min walk to Galata tower. It's large and has a traditional feel. The little window seating box is really cute. It's also very clean :-) Sishane is the closest station and it's about 10-15mins walk down hill to the bridge. Be prepared and wear flat secure sandals or trainers as some paths are every steep. Some taxi drivers will not drive to Galata tower during peak commuting time as the roads can get very busy and a 5mins journey can turn into 30mins. Locals are super friendly so it was kind scary from someone from London but they are genuinely very nice and warm people. One shopkeeper even offered me her dinner when I enquired about what she was eating! Basically Istanbul is a wonderful place and this flat was a lot lovely to place to stay 😊
