We stayed in this apartment for a week and quite enjoyed it. The location is terrific, the apartment is clean and the bed is comfortable. Be aware of two aspects to this unit. First, it is quite small so you need to be neat with your stuff or it gets cluttered quickly. Second, the shower is also the bathroom…a bit like in a sailing vessel. So you need to be OK with that. We got used to both the size and the shower quickly. We also appreciated the washer/dryer. There is comfortable common space downstairs, and we made good use of it. You are very close to many nice shops, restaurants, and public transportation. The Galata is a 5 minute walk, with all the buzz that that area brings. The Beyoglu’s main shopping street is also quite near. This is a good place to stay and the price is right.
