Begum's place was AMAZING!! From my first point of booking, Begum was incredibly communicative and helpful, there was no issue getting to her place (though taxi's have a bit of a problem getting anywhere in Beyoglu) and access to the apt was seamless. It is located in an incredible area, literally at the foot of the Galata Tower. The terrace is fantastic, the bed is SO COMFY and even the bathroom which does not have a shower stall I was skeptical about but the water pressure was fantastic and nice and hot. The views to the Old city are spectacular from the apt. Highly recommend and I would stay again in a heartbeat!!
