Meso's apartment was perfect for our stay in Istanbul. It's in a great location close to the Galata Bridge and near many public transportation options. The apartment itself was clean and beautiful - looked better than it did in the pictures! It had everything we needed. One thing to note is that it's three flights up, so this may not be the place for you if steps are a problem. You enter through a Books & Coffee cafe which was a cool place. The security guard at night was awesome. I'd recommend Meso's apartment!
