It is lovely cosy apartment at a wonderful location close to the metro station. Galata, Istikal Street were walking distance. Cihan was kind enough to help with me with my bags because the lack of a working elevator would have made it quite a challenge if I had to do it by myself. Coming in relatively hot n humid month, I definitely needed the AC (which was in the bedroom) even though the apartment has good cross ventilation. The living room gets plenty of sunlight though no AC there. The view would have been lovelier had it not been blocked by some trees in front but hardly an issue if you’re out n about discovering the city. Good amenities in the house - WiFi, Washing Machine, Toiletries, Refrigerator, TV, Dishwasher etc. though I used only a few. Cihan was a super sweet host, easy to talk to (his English is superb!!) and quick to respond and help out whenever I needed anything. Recommend this place!
