5 stars. Could be the best view in Istanbul. The sunsets from here are amazing. The attention to detail captures every angle of the apartment in a stunning manner. Very spacious, bathroom is a bit tight, but has a bidet so that's great. The washer dryer was a plus since we were midway through our Europe trip. Location wise, it's right next to Galata tower and easy walking distance to everything and public transportation. It's also close to hopping nightlife, but very quiet from it all somehow. Couldn't hear a peep. Of course, as she mentions, the stairs are tough and there is no elevator. if you have a lot of luggage or have a hard time walking, the stairs will be an issue for you. Don't be detered by the outside, the inside is amazingly refurbished.
