Reviews of White Rose Apart

The location is great, very close to galata tower, but its not very easy to find in the first time and some parts of the area is a bit dark, but didnt bother us. The apartment was clean and the guy that checked us in was very helpful.

The shower could be better.

Input conditions: vacation for a week with my mom. Temperature +33+35, it felt like +38 sometimes. We had the following priorities: - two-room apartments, so that each had its own space - Availability of a kitchen and equipment to be able to prepare food - refrigerator - air conditioning, in Turkey in the summer without this parameter I can not imagine how anyone can survive without it. - location should not be in a sharp hill, not with paving stones as mom 60+, can suddenly have problems with the leg, maximum 10-15 minutes to public transport ( train / subway ) - adequate price When I arrived, I just caught the owner and the crew fixing minor bugs, I got the keys without any problems. Very nice was the addition of a mobile air conditioner for the bedroom, my mom was delighted (thank you 100 times for that!). About the dishes - we found everything that we needed to use. The dishes looked clean. We have a rule that in apartments, even if the dishes look clean, we rinse them again before using them. Towels - of course they were clean. But we used the washing machine and threw them in there as well. After a 2 hour wash, they were crisp with cleanliness in a way they weren't when we checked in. I recommend using this mode) Accommodation is fine. I was not disturbed by the mosque, my mom was warned in advance that the mosque is very close by. She described the experience as “authentic, very interesting in fact”, at home we have an Orthodox church nearby and the bells are always ringing. Bedroom - mom felt comfortable. Living room - two sofa beds. I am 177 cm tall and when I slept, my toes were hanging down a bit. When I moved the sofas closer together, it was certainly better. Not enough pillow or pillowcases. There are two pillows in the bedroom, but my mom needed them. In the living room there were small sofa pillows, firm, I love those, but there were no pillowcases for them.

Just a suggestion :) When you are living in an apartment there is always a question of buying such items as dishwashing liquid, sponges for washing dishes, washing powder, salt, sunflower oil, olive oil and so on. One thing that is certain is that the dishwashing sponge is refreshed with each guest check-in. It would be a great addition to buy basic refill containers and sign them. Most likely each guest buys something and leaves more than half of it. We brought some laundry powder, for example, but then we saw under the sink that there was a box, but it was unclear if there was definitely laundry powder in there. For products such as oils, it would be great to sign the date. It is clear that in a month may not be used, but it does not spoil, and if you see a bottle not dated, I would rather buy a new one)))) Just in case if it has been open for a year - who knows).

Everything was good and Mr. Osman is very kind and supportive person as well as Mr. Sommer

Nothing

Location and ease of access

The pictures aren't accurate and the rooms etc look older and more run down but it's good for quick stays

Osman made sure we checked in well with clear instructions and the apartment is nicely located just 5 minutes walk from Galata Tower. The apartment has all the mentioned utilities. So Location and Utilities are Big Pluses.

Needs maintenance so bit Pricey for the condition. Kitchen utensils need an upgrade. The bathroom needs a stopper and ventilation..

The host was very hospitable and helpful

The bathroom was very small and the shower box was very moldy

All

The apartment is very close to everything that you need in terms of transportantion (metro/bus), shops and bars/restaurants (very ckose to İstiklal street) and attractions like Galata Tower and Golden Horn. It is very clean and comfortable, it has evrrything thay you might need, even a washing machine and the price was definitely affordable especially for the area. Also Osman, the owner is very friendly and helpful with whatever you need!

Excellent location, close to attractions, in the evening you can stroll along the Bosphorus embankment. The apartment is clean, there are all necessary conditions for living. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I recommend it, I really liked it😊

Good place with a good price. Osman owner as was mentioned previous comments a good man who were very helpful

Location of the apartment was great, top hospitality. I will be glad to come again.

Very nice apartment and well located, the hosts were super friendly and let us stay a bit longer, also they were waiting for us when we arrived.

A little bit noisy, and very few kitchen and toilette supplies.

The host, Osman, is very amiable and helpful. The apartment is clean and cozy, providing an at-home feeling.The location is great, allowing you to easily walk to the Galata Tower or Istiklal Street, or take a tramway to Hagia Sophia. The price is surprisingly affordable for such a well-located place.

It may get hot during the summer. The air conditioning struggles to cope with temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius.

The location was excellent; Ataturk Bridge was 2 minutes away, while Istiklal Street and Galata Tower were each 10 minutes away. Everything was very close. The apartment was cozy and comfortable. Everything we could possibly need was there. The host was a very respectful and kind person who was available whenever either we needed assistance or had a question in a short time. I really appreciate your availability and generosity.

Horrible Wi-Fi. The bathroom was small.

Location and helpful staff

Avoid taxis and always ask prices before, high inflation turns people opportunistic

perfect location if you want to walk around the city, friendly staff, instant response anytime whatever you need

noisy neighbourhood, a little expensive
