Our stay at Hikmet's apartment was our first Airbnb experience and it was a very good one.
Arrival : Hikmet waited until 1:00 AM because our flight was late. He gave instructions to the taxi by phone, he greeted us very warmly and volunteered to carry our suitcase up all the way to the 3rd floor. A plate of fruits and a much appreciated big bottle of water were waiting for us in the fridge.
Appartement: just like in the pictures, very clean, nice towels, sheets, kitchen utensils, very useful air conditioning, TV, daily cleaning by a nice lady.
Terrace : even better than in the picture, great view of the sea and of the passing ships.
Neighborhood: very close to tramway, walking distance to major Sultanahmet sites, close to small food shops open late, very quiet at night since it is located near little shoe manufacturers.
Extra : Hikmet kindly prepared a Turkish breakfast on the terrace on the morning of our choice.
Departure : Hikmet offered to book a shuttle and came to the appartement to say good bye.
Highly recommended!
