My husband and I had an incredible stay at Wahid’s place. It was beautiful. Wahid is immensely kind and one of the most hospitable people we have ever met! We shared many cups of tea with him while exchanging stories, but there was never any pressure on us to stay and chat. Wahid has a lovely shop filled with artisan carpets at incredibly fair prices— it was evident that he has a passion for what he does. We bought a lovely hand crafted rug from him at the end of our stay. As for the location, it was perfect with many historic sites (Hagia Sofia, Hippodrome, Basilica Cistern, etc) as well as restaurants within comfortable walking distance!
We were sad to leave and hope our paths will cross with Wahid again in the future!
