Isik was a great host through out the entire experience. He waited patiently past midnight for a late check-in due to baggage arrival problems. The flat was as the pics show, though the room was small with no view, it wasn't a problem for me because it was chilly when in Istanbul so it helped heat up the room nicely and keep it warm. Don't be afraid to ask Isik for additional help as was always up for the call. For example, I flew back with girlfriend into Istanbul from another city and had a full day to use up before flying at midnight. Isik was happy to let us store our luggage to self pick up at night before heading to the airport despite not renting out a room that day. Thanks for the great help!
