Ergun is a really nice and helpful host. At the beginning he showed us everything in the apartment and gave us a map and some tipps for Istanbul.

The apartment was small but lovingly furnished and we had everything that we needed. If there was something missing we just told Ergun and he gave us what we asked for.
The location of the apartment is perfect. To Taksim square it's just 5 min walk. Near Taksim square you can also take the bus to the airport.
Ergus told us that the guests which were staying there just before us left the apartment dirty and in chaos. Therefore we found some leftovers like spots of beer or something on the wall.
Furthermore you can hear the noise from the street and sometimes a heavy metal band which practices one floor down. Maybe that's why there was also sometimes the smell of cigarette smoke.
