Doruk's apartment looks better in real life than represented in the photos, it has more light and seems bigger. The three bedroom apartment with two bathrooms was perfect for our group of four adults. The two bathrooms were both well appointed with an ample amount of towels and a very large shower in both. The one small downside was that it did take a while for the water to heat up and even still did not get as hot as I usually prefer. The kitchen was fantastic, well appointed with coffee maker, panini press, toaster and large fridge in addition to your standard kitchen supplies. The house is wired up with a high quality sound system that lets you play music across the whole apartment.

The Galata neighborhood was perfect for us, four mid to late-twenty professionals. We walked to most tourist destinations but the tram is also very close. If you do stay, make sure to check out Mavra for a great breakfast and 10% off for staying with Doruk.
