Hikmet was the most amazing host. He arranged for a pick up from the airport and was there to meet us to check us into his place. He made us a welcome breakfast as well as dinner one evening. He showed us the best places to go to. He was a true super host. Istanbul has a lot to offer and Hikmet's apartment was so close to everything in the old city. Hikmet arranged for us to go to a day trip to Gallipoli and even met us at 0620am to walk us to the bus pick up point.
I can highly recommend staying at Hikmet's and wish him well for the future. He made our stay in Istanbul even more enjoyable. Thank you Hikmet!
