Dogan is a very cool and helpful guy, always available to give you a hand with any problems. The place is near Istiklal street and Taksim square, but it's quiet, so you can sleep well after you enjoyed busy Istanbul nightlife 🙂. His cat, Dayi, can be a bit grumpy at first, but once he gets used to you, is quite tender and likes to sleep with you near your legs. The bathroom is old, but functional.
