We had a lovely stay at Adem's lovely apartment. Communication was quick and easy throughout our stay. Check in was very smooth. They were kind enough to help us carry our luggage up the stairs to the third floor where the apartment is located. Best part upon entering the apartment was the view of the Bosphorus from the window! Luckily that view is also available from the master bedroom.
The apartment itself is quaint and charming with lots of character. It was clean and tidy. We found everything we needed there (laundry detergent, fabric softener, dryer rack ...etc). The bathroom was cute with lots of thoughtful touches.
The location is super central, about 4 minutes walk from Galata Tower and from there to Istiklal Road. It is on the backside of Galata, so quiet at night, perfect for a good night's sleep. We felt safe throughout our stay. Our hosts were kind enough to take me on a tour of the neighborhood and show me the pharmacy, grocery, general directions and a lovely tea at the end. They also helped us carry our luggage down upon checkout. Thank you for everything.
