Samet and his brother + the two lovely cats are great host. If you need privacy this should be your pit stop as the whole attic and the big terrace are all yours. Though it can be very hot in summer and super cold in winter :) Superb location, market, shops or anything essential are all stone throw away. The Marmaray train station is 10 mins walking and will get you to Europe side in 40 mins. I love the neighborhood so much I probably extend my stay :)
P/S: Treat your host nicely and they will treat you 10x better!!!
