Burak was a superior host, he provided a true local tips, told us where to hangout, eat, and do shopping, also he helped us in booking our train to Ankara, we really enjoyed chatting with him after a long tiring day!
His place is great, it is located in a historical neighborhood, it is near by a lot of Istanbul's main attractions, the beds are comfortable, and the bathroom is good enough!
Tip: you can view Galata's tower from Burak's balcony.
