This apartment is nice but the location is on a run-down street and the building is horrific, with extremely noisy neighbours. There is a common space/courtyard serving about 20 apartments which conducts noise up and down, making it impossible to get any peace in the apartment at any time. The walls are so thin I could hear the people in the next apartment talking, watching TV, walking about. And one set of neighbours seem to spend most of the time banging and dragging furniture about. Others just shouting at times. I could even hear the guy upstairs taking a pee in the toilet. It was not value for money at all. The building entrance door banged all the way through the day and night I didn't have a decent sleep the whole time I was there. I tried to put this out of my mind, as compared to the apartment in another area of IstanbuI that I had fled from two days previously, it was an improvement, but I'm the end the noise got the better of me and I had to leave for my health and sanity.
