Isik was a great host- he met us at the bus stop and walked us to the apartment. He also responded very quickly whenever we had any questions. He provided us with a metro card for our stay and gave us information about local restaurants.

The listing was very accurate- it was a one bedroom apartment with a sleeper sofa on the 2nd floor (no elevator). The bathroom was clean as well. Spacious enough for 2 people.

The apartment was situation in a great neighborhood- walking distance to Taksim square, the Taksim metro, and Istiklal Street (where there are great shops, restaurants, and bars).
