Istanbul

Istanbul is a city that fascinates me and that I have visited many times... I have seen it with friends, single, married and finally with children... As it is difficult to get a hotel all four in the same room, the last time we decided on these apartments, the experience was great. They are perpendicular to the Istikal cadesi, and although it is true that the hill is very steep to climb, going down a little you get the tram. In front is a light supermarket with well-known food brands. The apartment is clean and comfortable, which leads to charming. To look for a stick, which has no blinds.... as in the rest of the world... and you wake up early in the morning... and the lack of an elevator.

We will be back

we arrived at 10pm, no problem with late check in. we booked for deluxe apartment, 1 bathroom,1 bedroom and sofa bed at the living hall. our apartment located on the 2nd level, and the room was exactly looked as in the picture. wifi connection is ok, kitchen utensils were provided. Aircond is only installed at the living hall, therefore you need to keep the bedroom door open to let the cool air flow to the room. No fan in the room. 

The location is close to Tophane tram station. It is a very steep hill walk to istiklal street (we decided not to walk up, we used tram). In front of the apartment is a small market where you can buy drinks and snacks, and next to the apartment is a shop where we bought and top up our istanbulkart.

Overall it was good for us

average apartment, close location to tram

We stayed on the first floor room 3.  The room is a good size with a separate bathroom and bedroom.  The room has dated from the pictures shown on the website, however, they were clean and the lady on reception was very helpful.

The reception area smells of cigarette smoke and unfortunately this smell carries up the winding staircase and into our room.

There are a few areas that need attention to make this room more desirable.  Stop smoking in the reception area.  Ensure the bedcovers are the same size of the bed, they are currently much smaller. Replace the mirror in the bathroom it has tape all around the sides.  The tap is loose and wobbles in the sink.  The kitchen splash back needs replacing as it is smashed, the bench top has a burn marks in it, the furniture needs to be updated and most importantly the windows should have at least double glazing.

Currently you hear all the street noise which goes on until around midnight, and at 4.30am you are then woken by the sounds which come out of the mosque speakers.

The location of these apartments are ideal, just 5 minutes down the hill to the hop on hop off bus stop and a beautiful cafe Fallen Galato where you can enjoy warm hospitality and great food.

The road is to steep to walk up to the shopping district but the hop on hop of bus can drop you at the shopping square.

These apartments have the potential to be something great, but the owner needs to put more love into making this happen.

We were booked for 3 nights, after 2 we checked out and went elsewhere.

Very noisy and smells of cigarette smoke no lift

The rooms smoke, so it smells a little. We didn't have a TV. The room was a 6-seater, mansardi penthouse. The bedrooms were a two-seater bed and two sofa beds. The TV was gone, but we didn't need it. The windows were in the ceiling, but it wasn't dark. There were two air conditioners. The ceiling was a little low in the bathroom - it wasn't very convenient to dry with a fan when I was 171cm tall. The service was provided by a Russian-speaking woman named Ulia.

A convenient option for large companies

The rooms have nothing to do with the photos : much smaller, not clean, and not comfortable. strong smell of cigarette smoke in the rooms and the hotel. We didn't sleep well because of the light in the room (no black-out curtain) Rude staff.
The location was the only think OK

average cleaning, random price, cigarette smoke smell everywhere...

Waking up, Moving from one institution to another (the manager apparently has a number of...), Time wasted and service antipathy.

Waking up, moving from one institution to another

We have moved several times: time lost, manager's antipathy, bad rooms. We changed the bed at midnight. Right location. Shower and dry shower in poor condition.

Intestinal displacements and average quality

Located in the bustling Beyoglu district, these apartments are clean and well equipped. Close to the tramway at 4 stations in the historic district and very close to the tower and the galata bridge.

Superb hotel ideally located

We stayed five nights, a spacious and clean apartment, the owner very available and very kind, and it's also an excellent location to consider as you can walk to the most beautiful parts of the city.

Great accommodation.

So this apartment does not have an elevator. Not really cool when you have a baby! And our apartment was 3 floors up!

I was a bit disappointed with the apartment as it didn't look as good as the pictures on the website. 

We arrived on a Thursday about 2 and booked 3 nights. By Saturday afternoon, our apartment was still not cleaned! we had to ask for clean towels and toilet paper!

Wifi connection was not good.

Nevertheless, our host was very friendly and his english was very good!

There is a little superette opposite the apartment which is very convenient as well as some neat coffee shops nearby.

The apartment is off Istiklal street...a bit of an inclined walk so you'll need some comfortable shoes. Not sure if walking up is worse than walking down...
