Samet's penthouse is a perfect little nest, perched on top of a typical old building, at the heart of Galata area. Close to many little cafes, restaurants and the Galata tower itself. It is great for a couple, and the little balcony offers a stunning morning overview of Istanbul, or an evening glance at the sunset. We definitely enjoyed indulging in a glass of wine (gifted by Samet upon our arrival) while watching Istanbul geeting into a dreamy state.
Samet is also a very kind host, who went out of his way so that we could pick up one of the items we had forgotten at his place.
