Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Wonderful apartment in perfect location!
We spent a glorious week in Istanbul in a nicely appointed and outfitted, three bedroom apartment. The transfers to and from airport were seamless, the amenities and suggestions were great. The location nearby Galata Tower was absolutely perfect for us in a super fun neighborhood with lots of nearby options and pretty easy access to Tunel and tram as well as ferries. Rooftop common area was both an early morning and sunset go-to throughout the trip. Would absolutely recommend to others and would be very happy & fortunate to return!

Tolles Appartement in Toplage
Schönes, großzügiges, toll ausgestattetes Appartement in Toplage direkt im Galata District von Beyoglu...viele Bars, Restaurants und coole Geschäfte direkt vor der Haustüre, zur Istiklal sind es 5 min bergauf, zur Straßenbahnstation in Richtung Sultanhmet 5 min bergab, man kann aber auch in 10 min gemütlich über die Galata Brücke gehen und ist schon mitten im historischen Zentrum. Die Kommunikation mit den Besitzern war super, wir durften früher ins Appartement und am letzten tag unsere Koffer unterstellen. Der von ihnen organisierte Flughafentransfer war pünktlich, wir haben auch noch Trinkwasser, Tee, Kaffee und Metro Karten bekommen. Gerne wieder :-)

Perfect Spot in Galata
This apartment is stunning and closed to everything! The pictures don't make justice to how airy and big the space really is. The terrace has 360 degrees views of beautiful Istanbul. All rooms are big and equipped with very nice beds and linens. The kitchen has all appliances to make your stay very pleasing. There are restaurants and many shops just steps away from the main door of the building. Simply Amazing!

Great spot in the city centre. Really great people
This is a fantastic apartment in just the right place in Istanbul. We booked everything through Tarkan and Julia and had a great trip. The pick up from the airport really saved a lot of stress. This is a very busy touristy area no matter what time is of day or night you arrive. Soto have the local manager Taksin to greet us from the taxi and show us to the apartment was fantastic. Everything is here and as Kirsty and Phil (UK property TV programme):location, location, location! The level of cleanliness in the apart6woyld embarrass a 5 star hotel. These guys are at the top of their game. If you want to visit Istanbul then you want to stay here. And don't forget to book the Foodie Tour - magic!

Perfect location, wonderful views
The location is amazing-- it is right by the Galata Tower and the rooftop terrace has a terrific view of both the Tower and the Istanbul skyline. The apartment was well furnished, clean, and very comfortable. We hope to stay there again in the future!

A haven within a busy city
The location of the apartment is unbeatable. The apartment was clean and tidy, and contained everything needed for a hassle free few days in Istanbul. The view from the rooftop terrace has to be one of the best in the city. The owner, Tarkan, met us at the apartment and provided us with all the information we needed. Would definitely recommend to others.

Каникулы в Стамбуле
Хорошие, просторные апартаменты, все чистое, квартира укомплектована всем необходимым для комфортного проживания. Приятный хозяин и менеджер который нас встречал. Вида из окон как такового нет, но это компенсируется терассой на крыше, с которой открывается незабываемый вид на пролив и Стамбул в целом. Вокруге много продуктовых магазинчиков и кафе. Очень понравилось, могу рекомендовать эти апартаменты."

A place of peace in a bustling city
The apartment was exactly as we wanted...well not strictly true as it exceeded expectations. A kind, friendly and quick man showed us round and got us in. The flat was well equipped and had everything we needed. Placed 100 paces from the Galata tower and less distance to Pepo's restaurant. I strongly suspect we will be back.
