Great location near Galata Tower and plenty of cafés, bars, and restaurants. The host is very switched on and easy to communicate with. The panoramic view from the shared terrace is unbeatable. The reasons for deducting a star are: the flat is a bit shabby, the kitchen is missing some basic utensils, there are a few low ceilings that tall people (like myself) would struggle with in certain rooms, the building itself is quite old and not that clean.
