The apartment was basic but worked well. The bed was the best part, a whole king-size to myself as a solo traveler felt like a budget luxury. There’s a kettle if you want tea, just bring your own tea bags. The bathroom is small but fine, and the hot water worked without any issues. There was a mild mold smell, but at such a low price I can’t really complain. It’s on the fourth floor with no elevator, so it’s not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. I stayed for three nights and had a genuinely great time. It cost about the same as a hostel but gave me much more privacy. The location in the heart of fatih is excellent, with trams and metros nearby and plenty of food shops and restaurants. The area can be noisy, though the windows do a surprisingly good job keeping the sound out. I’d book it again without hesitation if I come back to istanbul.
