Ertan is a great host. Super accommodating. He organized the airport shuttle for us and sent on information in advance to make it a smooth journey from the airport. The location of the airbnb is good for shopping and nightlife. The only downside was the pubs are really noisy and run until 2 or 3am (even on a weeknight) so it was difficult to sleep. If you are coming to Istanbul to go out, it would be a good place to stay in as everything in this location.
