This lovely design apartment in the Galata neighborhood was one of our favorite AirBnB stays in recent memory. The apartment is very centrally located and has every amenity you could need for a stay Istanbul -- tea kettle, well equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, lots of drawer and closet space. We enjoyed our morning baklava and tea each day in the sunlight filled living room while listening to jazz on the wonderful stereo using AirPlay.
The neighborhood is fantastic and is perfectly located to all of the major sites on both sides of the Golden Horn, the lovely Cehangir neighborhood, and ferries & trams to any part of Istanbul you could imagine. We adored our friendly cat neighbors who hung out in the streets outside the building.
Merve & her husband Alisan were super helpful and great communicators. Alisan waited for us at the apartment on our first day to help us find the place and get our bags up the stairs.
We hope to be back soon as we really loved this well designed apartment in a beautiful and enchanting city!
