Nihat is a fantastic host. My flight got delayed and I arrived very late however Nihat still helped me through the check-in process. Nihat constantly communicate with me to ensure everything is good for me. The house is extremely close to Taksim Square and there is plenty restaurants nearby. It is walkable distance to most places. The room comes with air conditioning which I believe is important as Istanbul can get very hot. I would recommend the house to anyone and I enjoyed my stay
