Our flight got delayed 5 hours and Isik was waiting for us until after midnight to take us from the meeting point to his apartment. He could have just given us the directions via email but it was very nice of him to make sure that we get to the place safely. The place is very clean and spacious for 2 to 3 people. The location is perfect with Metro station, Taksim square and the nightlife Istiklal street being just 5 minutes walk. Isik also gave us a transport card for Metro/Bus/Tram and that was very helpful. He always responded to our questions within 10-15 minutes. The neighborhood stores/restaurant people were very friendly too. Do eat at the neighborhood restaurant called Ozzy if you get a chance.
