Necip is one of the few people on Airbnb who are living by the ethos of the sharing economy - he is definitely not doing this for the money and is genuinely interested in meeting people from around the world. He was a great host who took time out to get to know us and show us good dinner spots despite his ridiculously hectic schedule at the hospital (and then insisted on paying! We now have to pester him to vist us so we can return his hospitality!). We had interesting discussions on politics in Turkey during this particularly volatile time and I found his insights incredibly enlightening.
The last few days he was traveling out of the country himself and let us stay on in the apartment as his guest with another friend of his. The room is quite comfortable and affords more privacy that implied in the posting. While we where there the apartment was quiet and yet we met some friends of his from other countries as mentioned in the description. The location is perfect - easy access to transport but away from the touristy areas of Sultanahmet. Necip, thanks for being a perfect host and making our stay in Istanbul so convenient and memorable. See you in Mumbai or Rome!
