Ayhan's flat was exactly as depicted on the pictures and has a very home-like feel to it. Pretty happy with the location, with a host of bakery shops, cafés and restaurants in the vicinity, and just over 10min walk from Galata bridge. We enjoyed the easy access to both seshane and tunel stations as well as the kebab restaurant just around the corner from the flat. Ayhan couldn't be more accommodating. He always answered our questions promptly and even spent few hours with us, walking around the shopping street and making us try some local delicacies (try the kalyata i barbaros - fish sandwich - at Galata bridge). His father was very helpful too. All in all a very pleasant stay in beautiful Istanbul made very easy by a great host. Will definitely stay again.
