Not even 2 minutes after I made the reservation and my wonderful host was already contacting me for any requests and suggestions on where and how to get to places. The moment I checked in he welcomed me and took me straight for lunch and was very eager to show me around. We ended up hanging out for the most part of my stay showing me around places I did not know about and the best and most economical way to get there. Hospitality at its best for sure! I plan to explore more of Turkey but will stay here anytime I pass through Istanbul as it feels like home.
