Nihat's place was the perfect place for my first time visiting Istanbul. Nihat was always willing to help and freely gave suggestions and directions. It was a bonus that he spoke English and had lived in the US, being one of the reasons I chose him and his Airbnb. The rates also suited my tight artist budget! I enjoyed conversation with him, his humor and laughter. He was always a gentleman and brotherly, treating all his guests with consideration and equanimity. He went the extra mile to ensure my stay was the best. He not only met me the day I arrived to escort me from the public bus transportation from the airport, to his Airbnb, but got up at 2:30 am the day of my departure, carrying my heavy baggage down several flights of stairs to meet my taxi. He's definitely a peoples person. Thank you Nihat for making my visit to Istanbul incredibly memorable. A++
