Truly magical apartment and host experiences like this is what makes Airbnb special. Dodo is a wonderful host who made us feel so at home. My parents, husband and I stayed in this apartment for a week and, thanks to Dodo's suggestions, felt like we really got to explore the best of the city. His guidebook for Istanbul is pure gold, and his communication was speedy and helpful whenever we were in need. I can't recommend staying here enough!
The apartment has lovely natural light, was exceptionally clean, and has great water pressure in both bathrooms. The area is ideal for exploring; you can walk out the door to a selection of bars and restaurants, and visit Galata tower and Taksim Square on foot. It's also very well situated for public transport, which made it very easy to visit Sultanahmet Square and other sites by tram or metro.
All in all, 10/10. I've already recommended this to friends and family and can't wait to be back again!
