We had a great time in Istanbul and staying in Murat's flat was convenient since it's very well located in Beyoglu. The contact with Murat was a pleasure and he always replied very fast, also he gave us all the information we needed to quickly find his place (which can be tricky in Istanbul's labyrinth). All we needed to enjoy a few days in this buzzing city! Looking forward to coming back again, maybe the fridge works then (we didn't mind at all, rather we enjoyed to eat out and enjoy the Ottoman cuisine) :)
