Doruk is the kind of Airbnb host that should give hotels sleepless nights. He was present on arriving and leaving and gave us a feel of the area. One of the main reasons for most people to visit Istanbul is the atmosphere and local flavours and Doruk's apartment gives you that in spades, 120m from metro and Istiklal street makes location ideal do not get an apartment on the south side of the horn you want to be on this side especially after 7 pm. Apartment had plenty of space for our family of six and was comfortable, safe and well equipped, fastest Wifi of our entire trip.
