Stay away from this place. It operates more as a hostel with private rooms than any type of apart-hotel or apartment building. It's got creepy staff also. I have no idea how this place has so many positive reviews. I got refunded in full immediately and found a much better place a mile-and-a-half away in Sisli.
Some of the greatest hits of my experience:
-Creepy af staff. You feel it immediately.
-Listing has no washer as advertised.
-When confronted with the misrepresentation of his listing, because I needed to wash my stuff, the host (Kerem, who does not speak English) showed up with two other men and yelled profanities at me (in Turkish of course, which I don't speak with any level of fluency, but I am nevertheless more than familiar with many of the most well-known curses, don't ask why lol). His colleagues had to actively calm him down and tell him to stop.
-Super-noisy location, which is expected in many areas of Besiktas, but this place is especially bad, and I've stayed in Besiktas long-term multiple times. There is a cafe downstairs, which is cool and convenient especially for us over-caffeinated types, but combined with the ambient street noise, it is bad. And I was there all of maybe two hours.
-Can't overstate the hostel like atmosphere, which is fine, but for me, I'm not of hostel age anymore, and these aren't hostel prices.
-The room is absolutely minuscule. Digital phone photography sure does work wonders. The build
-Kerem did not respond to a request for WiFi info. It took two other people and twenty minutes of waiting in the cafe to get me connected.
-Fellow travelers, don't say you didn't know, cause I just told you.
