The flat is apt for its description - very cozy and clean with all the kitchen amenities, a good living space and a room. The place is very close to Istiklal street and Galata Towers; 15 mins walk from the place. There is a well stocked grocery store in the same street thats enough for all your needs to live by for a week.
Our host, Ahmed, was very helpful with tips to travel; gave us a spare metro card and went out of his way to help us get a taxi at 4 in the morning. Great experience overall.
