Lakot was very helpful even before I traveled to Istanbul. I had a problem with my reservation and he took more than 6 hours of his time to help me solve it with airbnb.
I landed very late at night in Istanbul and he waited for me until I arrived.
Throughout my whole stay, if I ever needed anything, I would text him and he replied instantly.
The apartment itself is very clean, modern, kind of tiny but sufficient for 2 people. I would suggest some more kitchen utensils such as a water heater or a regular coffee machine, some bigger bowls or mugs.
Besides that, the apartment's location is close to public transportation (Tophane tramway station - T1 line - is only 4 minutes walk), a little market is literally a door away from the building, Galata 10 min, Taksim 15 min, Cihangir 7 min. The heating system is phenomenal as well as the water.
I absolutely recommend staying at his place. Thank you very much Lakot
