First of all, the view from this place is just BREATHTAKING. It has a gorgeous view of the old city and glistening Bosporus from the living room and it overlooks the water from both bedrooms as well. And the most beautiful thing about it is its height at which you can see the whole traditional Turkish neighborhood's rooftops with seagulls swooping and squarking over the water, houses, and mosques right before sunset .. the whole experience just blew me away. I didn't want to leave the apartment ever around that time! I took a video of the view with the birds and call to prayer around sunset that I hope Hatice can post so you can get a real feel for it because the pictures do this place no justice. As for the apartment itself, it has two small bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen with all the basics, a dining table in the hallway and a writing desk, and of course the living room. I'd say it's perfect for two solo travelers or two couples who are ok sharing a bathroom. The only caveat is that there is no elevator so you have to walk up 4 narrow flights of stairs, I personally found it to be good exercise but I guess it can be an issue for some people. The neighborhood is a very local authentic traditional Turkish one (across the street from Radisson Blu Pera), but Galata and Taksim are only a 10 minute walk away, and Asmalimescit which is full of restaurants is right in front of it, a few minute walk, as is the charming Balık Pazarı (local fish market with spice shops and cafes and bakery.) Right below the apartment building is La Perla bakery, run by Hatice herself who I discovered is a phenomenal chef and baker, not to mention just a beautiful warm human being. I had breakfast there a couple of times and her buttermilk pancakes, coffee, and cakes are to die for. I have nothing but good things to say about this place. If it weren't booked I would have definitely stayed longer. Highly recommended!
