Stay Lab Residence

It was a great, safe location for activities and walking around late at night as a solo female. The apartment was above an Expresso-lab cafe which offered a discount for residents. There was a large living area, 2 bathrooms and 2 separate bedrooms with queen size beds. This made sharing the space very relaxed.

The location was terrific. I loved the vibe of the room, venue, and area. The views were terrific. We stayed in the penthouse (seventh floor), which required stairs from the elevator on the sixth floor. That room's balcony was a terrific place to enjoy the views. The penthouse bed was more decorative than utilitarian, but it was a comfortable place to chill or sleep as was the quiet, separate bedroom. This trip was part of a family reunion; other family stayed on the third floor, accessible via elevator. The ground floor coffee shop (EspressoLab) was a nice start to the day if one wanted, or you could brew some provided coffee or tea in your room or go somewhere else. Booking this venue for the reunion and for tourism in Istanbul worked out perfectly. I feel the amount I paid was a perfect sweet spot between amenities, location, and affordability. The view, cleanliness, and location would bring me back. Strong recommend.

Vera checked us in - she was very helpful and polite. I did not have to reach out to her again except for the AC not cooling for us - but she did respond quickly. Location is amazing. 30 seconds and you are on Istikhal Street. Nice upity builidng, made well w heavy steel and on top a coffee shop that was open pretty late. Next door to a cleaners / laundry as well. Restaurants galore. Photos are accurate of the view. There is no bad view from any floor of the Stay Labs.

The location was great, 1 min walk from Istiqlal street. The room view was amazing😍and the place was pretty comfortable. Mr. Mehmet was welcoming and friendly. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to others.

Location, location, location. The apartments are newly renovated and furnished. Everything you might need in a city break like Istanbul, and great for small families, as the kids get to have an "apartment" feeling instead of a small cramped hotel room.
