Great spot for exploring local landmarks while on the European side! Nice spot for a family or small group, and the balcony was awesome. Our host was very nice as well. I recommend it for any Istanbul first timer who wants easy access to Hagia Sofia, mosques, bazaar, etc

Wrong picture, no coffe machine, one glass ; impossible to use terrasse too hot and no sunshade. It is not a hotel but a private apart. Nothing to clean, no dishcloth. The picture you see is not the apart you rent. You have to climb 60 steps. Very noisy.Need paint. But the owner is fast to get your money with a smile. Forget about it. It's a scam

I liked the apartment, and I also appreciated the location. Access to our apartment was via a winding staircase to the top floor, and that was tiring.

We truly enjoyed staying in this lovely apartment. The location was the best: in the very heart of the historical district, less than 10 minutes walk to Aya Sophia, Blue Mosque, etc. Close enough to public transportation which we used. There were a refrigerator, a stove and a kettle (no coffee maker) which we used to make our breakfast. There was a terrace with a view to a next door mosque and Marble Sea. There was a small shop where we were buying what we needed for the breakfast, including the water (the tap water is not advisable to drink but is OK for brushing teeth or cooking). A number of restaurants that were making a great food. The lady who was the hostess was reachable immediately via WhatsApp. We lived on the top, 5th floor, and the place does not have the elevator – so guests should be able to make it there plus to take their luggage. That was not an issue for us, though. If we decide to visit Istanbul again, we will stay at the same place if it will be available.

Muito bom

Muito bem localizado em Istambul o apartamento facilitou nossas férias por estar próximo de vários pontos turísticos e da estação do bonde. O apartamento possui cozinha equipada com os itens essenciais, o que ajuda bastante para estadas mais longas. Além disso, ficamos no apartamento do 5° andar que possui uma sacada com uma vista ótima.

I really like the balcony, thought it would have been better in the summer. The local area is a historic, touristy area. Beware that there are no elevators and having the balcony room involves climbing to the 5th floor by stairs. Some of the pictures involve different room layouts, so we thought that our specific room was going to be larger than reality.

exepedia, avendo disdettato l'appartamento che avevo prenotato con parcheggio, mi prenota questo appartamento. Al ceckin con la donna della pulizia, non mi danno informazioni sul parcheggio, ma fortunamente trovo, per fortuna (è sabato sera!) un parcheggio per strada sotto casa a 7 euro al giorno. La posizone della casa è stupenda, vicinissima a tutte le attrazioni raggiungibili a piedi. La casa è anche di un certo prestigio ed è diffcile capire perchè abbia un terzo letto (da aprire) scomodo e con materasso duro. Per l'accoglienza penserei che dia da lasciare un poì di caffè, te', sale zucchero, olio..l. Per il resto tuttooltre ok.

Excellent Customer Service

Stay was very nice. The customer service provided by Mrs Irma and Paco was excellent. They took care of us, and facilitated everything for us. Communicaction was excellent. The contact manager was always responding quickly, and gave us quick answer to our questions. We left our luggage for a couple of days b/c we traveled to another city and had to come back to Istanbul. Irma took care of our luggage and to make sure we had everything we needed when we came back. The only issue we found is that the apartments do not have elevator, but that is something out of their control. Other than that, the apartment had everything, including a washer. My wife and I are very pleased with our stay at Masal. Location was also excellent, close to the historical center.
