Murat was a great host. As he is new on airbnb and there were no comments, so we were reluctant to book his apartment, but when we looked all the details, location, etc. and after a short pre-communication with Murat, we decided to go with it and our decision proved to be 100% correct.
Murat apartment located only 100 m away from osmanbey M2 metro & many buses stops, although it is centrally located but it is really safe & peaceful (no noise), so when we returned in the apartment after spending busy days, we got really relaxed. In my opinion this is much better place for small family with kids than to sultan Ahmed area, which is much busy & always crowded. With metro we reached every place very quickly and without walking too much (kids 8 & 6 years). We stayed about 2 weeks, but we didn’t use taxi even for a single day, as metro & buses connections were pretty good. Even from & to airport we used metro and bus (much faster & cost effective than taxi).
Lot of good restaurants, McDonald, grocery shops were open very late night.
Apartment include all needed amenities for small family. For example we used couple of times washing machine and put the cloths for drying outside at small balcony available in Murat apartment. Air conditioner worked pretty good. Apartment also have small working kitchen, but we didn’t use it, as we ate entirely outside (delicious Turkish food with reasonable cost).
Murat was very communicative and reacted very quickly, there was very minor issue with toilet seat and Murat sent the technician immediately to fix it.. wow for this.
Murat was kind enough that he waited for us more than 1 hour as we arrived late due to flight delay and he let us checkout pretty late, as our flight was late evening. 5 stars for this 
I highly recommend Murat apartment, if I visit again Istanbul I will definitely book again his apartment.
At the end Murat thank you for all and you get all the stars from me *****.
