My partner and I spent 3 nights at the apartment and absolutely loved our stay. Exactly as described/pictured on the listing and the most amazing view from the balcony! You could spend hours watching the harbour and the ships go by and you can catch both sunrise and sunset. Speedy and helpful communication from the hosts and well-equipped. We loved the location, Cihangir/Beygolu has got a number of nice cafes, restaurants, shops/supermarkets etc (also a couple of great Borek shops/bakeries for breakfast nearby) within an easy 5 minutes from the apartment. Galata tower would be about a 15 minute walk, Sultanahmet (blue mosque/aya sofya) more like 45 mins pretty walk along the water, but taxis/trams easy to get. Highly recommend, we would not stay anywhere else on our next trip to Istanbul!
