Dundar was very friendly and accommodating to our odd check-in hours. We did not manage to interact with him much, but interacting with other guests in the common area was very enjoyable!

One thing to note, however, is that the flat is on top of a rather steep hill. If you want toned calves after a week, this is for you! Otherwise, the location is great, near the main Taksim square and providing easy access to all the main attractions in Istanbul.
