lovely terrace but on very noisy road
We were able to drop bags in early which was very helpful. Flat was clean and tidy, nice bedrooms. dining area a bit dark. Could be a problem with one bathroom if fully occupancy. Terrance was so lovely and nicely done with plenty of seating. If you have a bedroom at the front of the flat, don't expect to get too much sleep, so much noise from traffic out the front continuously throughout the night. If bedroom at the back, there is quite often very loud live music playing. Hosts were very helpful, great communication.

Fantastic rooftop terrace
We stayed 7 nights in this great apartment. Amazing rooftop terrace with wonderful views across the Bospherous. The rooftop terrace is shared with others but we rarely met anyone else up there. The location is great, just across the street is a tram station and a local ferry terminal and buses also run every few minutes into the centre. Best way to travel was by ferry - I loved it. Three good sized bedrooms with double beds, air con in one bedroom and the entrance hall so we we all slept well and kept cool, and big fans in the other rooms. Lovely hosts who were really helpful and responsive.
