It is, very much so. I’ve been there three times in the past, most recently in early 2010, and always had an enjoyable time.

In 2010, I stayed in Konya. A bit cool, of course, it was January, but still nice. The tomb of Rumi is quite the attraction.

Is Turkey safe for tourists to travel around in?

Some time back there was a thread that had to do with Turkey and one of the posters claimed that if you got away from the major tourist sites and went into small out-of-the-way places, the people hated Westerners (as if it might be risky to visit such places).

I've never been to Turkey although there are a number of places I would like to visit. I've also heard people speak well of the Turks to the effect that they are friendly and welcoming to tourists.
