Staying at Mehmet’s was great, good location in local neighbourhood. We love cats and made some friends whilst staying here. Mehmet and his brother Ali made us feel very welcome, he was kind and helpful. His place was clean and had everything you needed. And if you needed to stock up on anything Mehmet has a shop of a bit of everything, which is helpful if you’ve forgotten something. Very authentic to Istanbul, would recommend to all and stay again if I returned to Istanbul.
