Aylin arranged a pick-up at the airport and greeted us, in fluent english, outside the flat. It proved to be as beautiful as the illustrations, with washing machine and dishwasher.
Do ask her to demonstrate just how the door/key combination work [simple when you know how] as we had to ask the very helpful guys in the Pizzeria downstairs for advice.
The location couldn't be better - less than fifty yards from Istikal, and a similar distance from the highest rooftop bar in Istanbul [Mikla].

Highly recommended!
