Dodo's apartment is an exceptionally good Airbnb, one of the best I've stayed in. It’s spacious, clean, and he's done it up beautifully. The beds are very comfortable and there's a well-equipped kitchen if you need that. Overall, it has a really good feel. We enjoyed relaxing there after a long day on our feet exploring the city before heading out again.
The location is pretty much perfect. It's on a quiet street but the vibrancy Istanbul is just a couple of minutes away with several cafes and restaurants very nearby. The port, with bridges and ferries to the Asian side, is 10 minutes by foot with the metro and tram just 2 minutes walk.

Dodo is a friendly and warm person. He arranged airport transfers; met us on arrival, then showed us the apartment before taking us out for a little tour of the area and buying us a beer. He was there to help with anything we needed or asked about. He's a first-class host. If you're thinking of where to stay, you can't go wrong here.
