Where to start with the awesome Mesut! We arrived from Nigeria earlier than the check in time , I sent Mesut a message to see if he could allow us an early check in and he obliged ! He was so kind to keep sweets and chocolates for us upon arrival, he also made water , washing utilities and other essentials available for us at no extra charge !
His apartment is right at the center of Taksim.. Five minutes walk to Istiklal street which has a lot of high street shops and tourist attractions like the Gelata tower. Mesut speaks and writes in English which was refreshing for us as we were faced with the language barrier ( we speak only English )
His apartment is also very connected in terms of transportation, very close to taxis and metro. Very clean apartment too ! Exactly as described in the pictures.. He also left us an extra key which was great ! I and my family can go on and on about how lovely Mesut and his apartment made our stay at Istanbul.. We would definitely stay at his apartment when next we are in Istanbul.
Thank you for a wonderful experience !
