Hikmet is a nice guy and makes you feel welcome.
He has a number of places in Istanbul and is happy to help his guests.
The apartment was basic and although we weren't thrilled that it was below street level it is in a fantastic location for all of the tourist sites in the old city.
Watch out for the steps down to the apartment as they are steep and narrow and my son nearly fell down when we arrived.
The rooms are small but we were happy for the extra space from the bed settee.
Pretty good value for money.
