Location (area wise) is excellent. The Istiklal avenue and Galata Tower are walking distance. However the building itself is on a street which is a electrical and hardware market. No tourists and the building entrance is blocked with boxes of electrical items being loaded and unloaded from trucks
The biggest disappointment for my stay was the five floors climb. The building doesn’t have an elevator. My stay with a one year old baby and our luggage to climb five floors was exhausting, not to ignore the fact that we had to do it every time we returned to the apartment. The host should provide a helper for the luggage. For people who are with a family and infants , I would not recommend this place
