Osman is a terrific host with an incredible flat for exploring Istanbul. As a first time visitor, I was nervous about finding the right neighborhood in town to base myself and found Cihangir to be perfect: artful, neighborly, unique, with great food and bars within walking distance. Osman himself made my stay wonderful, greeting me at the flat when I arrived. The flat is also gorgeous, clean and modern-- with the best view of Istanbul I could ever imagine! Thanks Osman!
