Great apartment and even better host. I would definitely stay here again next time in Istanbul. The location is perfect- close to the metro, tram, tunel, Istiklal street, and lots of shops and restaurants.
The apartment is very well set up with nice furniture (not just standard made in China stuff that you find in most apartments) and all the little extras that make it extra comfortable.
Doruk is a fantastic host - he made us feel very welcome and at home. He greeted us personally, even though we arrived at about 2 AM. Some hosts warn you about things like towels and extra linens (if you only requested a stay for one person then please don’t use more than one towel). Doruk is the opposite - if you need towels, here are extra ones. Here is a six pack of water. Lots of other little extras like that. I wish he ran a school for other Airbnb hosts.
