The neighbohood has many small restaurants and shops and the area around Galata is very lively in the nights. But most streets are very narrow and steep, so cars have a hard time getting there. The building is right next to and abandoned building in terrible shape. The entrance to the building is old , dirty and smelly. 21/2 floors with your luggage. The apartment has good space with a hall-dining area and a good living room with a big TV with no channels. So its either youtube or netflix. Three good size rooms and two small bathrooms that have a problem in the sewage connection because they smell badly. One air conditioning that barely works. Full kitchen well equipped.
Not the place to be if you have any mobility difficulties or if it’s summer.
