Location, view, aesthetic of the apartment

Everything was good honestly

През последната година ми се налага чест да идвам до Истанбул и всеки път отсядам на различно място, то това определено ми допадна най-много и ще повторя. Разположението е прекрасно - точно до спирка на метрото и на 10 минути пеша от Галата. В близост има магазини и заведения за хапване. Стаята е просторна, чиста и съвременно обзаведена. Гледката към моста е радост за окото.

It is 13 minutes walking from Galata Tower, with steep hills (to be taken into account). The view from the terrace is nice specially at sunset. The bed is comfortable and the person that writes to you via WhatsApp is nice. It is spacious.

At first I was a bit concerned as the name states this is a hotel but it is not, it more like an AirBnb. The person in charge contacts you via WhatsApp and gives you the keys in front of a paint store, or leaves you the keys with the cashier of a convenience store in the corner of the building. The area is a bit shady and the entrance is located in a “dark” alley so I would definitely NOT RECOMMEND for women travelling alone as you will not feel safe. As this is not a hotel, there is no room cleaning during your stay. The room with a terrace is in the fourth floor without an elevator so it is important you consider this when you book as you will need to climb 4 floor with luggage for example. It is 7/10 clean.
