Arif is a very good host. The house is in the neighborhood in Sisli. It is close to Taksim. There is a grocery store 1 minute away, and all major markets 5 minutes away. It's a safe place. The street is a little steep. The flat has two floors as it is a duplex. We stayed in the ground floor (upper floor) room. The kitchen and bathroom were also on this floor. We didn't go very far downstairs (under the ground). We used the living room downstairs where there is only the dining table. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. Heating is pretty good. It is about 10 minutes' walk from Osmanbey Metro station. I would recommend it to everyone.
