We've been somehow followed by bad luck while staying in Mersin's apartment for two weeks. Upon arrival the toilet was very dirty, and even though the cleaning lady came and without using any detergents cleaned it somehow, it was not really as we would expect.
The apartment itself is very nice, but as it is on the ground floor you never get any real sunlight, and don't know how the weather is outside. The neighborhood is very dirty, but very convenient location and local shops and restaurants are accessible … however don’t expect to buy a glass of wine there.
Waking up on a Saturday night and not having running water was very unpleasant (people say it is not uncommon in this area), but it was even worse when it happened to us after a long day of working and wanting to wash our hairs on the next day morning.
The internet is not excellent but you’re lucky if it works, our balance was 3 days without internet connection, which is not the best thing if you want to stay connected or urgent things to solve.
Having said all this I have to mention Mersin was very responsive and his mother very willing to solve our problems that became frequent during our stay … and I would even recommend this apartment for you if I didn’t have a visitor on the terrace on our last morning … a well fed rat smiling at me (photo: https://www.dropbox.com/sc/3ki0pqfq0p6pwjx/AACOipev-kuDoh0XVXJpmoo4a) .
