Mehmet’s apartment is one of several in a great modern building with stunning views over the Golden Horn and the historic Pera Palace Hotel (if you ignore the car park). I stayed in the 5th floor apartment which was modern and very clean. Great to have a Smart TV too for entertainment when you’ve finished exploring. The aircon works really well so you can always be cool been when it’s 30 degrees outside. Bathrooms are small but the shower works really well. Bed in main bedroom was medium firm and decent to sleep on. The kitchen isn’t really suitable for a meal but you can heat up a takeaway. I had a great stay and will be back. Perfect place in central Istanbul for seeing the sights and being near great restaurants. Mehmet was really helpful for takeaway food tips when the city was in lockdown. Also worth checking out his guidebooks. I had the best Turkish food at the Galata Lily Cafe - highly recommended!
