Ahmet and his assistant Emre are efficient and helpful. I really appreciated their kind help to check into the flat and more. The flat is on the ground floor in a building that is not clean. It is in a poor neighborhood that is also very loud at night - children play till 1am!!!!! just outside the window. It did not feel very safe to come back at night to the flat.
When you open the window, you are right on the street-no privacy.
It is a few blocks from Taksim so accessible to the main square after a steep walk up the hill to get to the main avenue.
Even though I liked the host and his communication skills, I would favor a safer and more quiet neighborhood for my next stay.
