The apartment was clean and cozy and in a great location! Vincent was a great host. He was very responsive and polite. While checking in, I had trouble with the keys, and Vincent came downstairs and showed me everything which was very nice. After that, no key trouble! The list of recommendations was very helpful, and I appreciated the advanced notice that the washing machine wasn't working. I was still able to hand wash some items and use the drying rack. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Vincent was attentive and helpful - we loved the location in the heart of the restaurant district and right across the river from Old town Lyon. There were some steps to get to the apartment on the top level but it was spacious, very clean, well appointed and a spectacular view of the Basilica from our living room window. We would recommend this to friends and stay here again!! Lyon exceeded our expectations - this stay was lovely!

The apartment is in a perfect location with a full street of restaurants backing directly onto the building. Access on arrival is difficult if you have large suitcases as there are five flights of stairs to get to the apartment. However, you only have to do this once and tradeoff is that you have a great view of the Basilica right from your lounge. The host is extremely helpful and we enjoyed our time in this apartment.

Thank you so much for your lovely review! I'm really glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the location and the view of the Basilica. Indeed, the stairs can be a bit of a workout at first — but as you said, the view makes it worth it! It was a pleasure to host you, and you're welcome back anytime.

Perfect location

Great location - near restaurants, boulangeries, must see sites. FYI - if you are mobility challenged or have large suitcases the apartment is on the 5th floor and a walk up. As typical of French apartments the stairs are narrow and winding and may be difficult. Vincent was extremely communicative and clear with directions for check in and out. We hit a heat wave in Lyon and he was gracious enough to provide an extra fan. I would stay again (hopefully in cooler weather).

Every little thing requires a communication with the host

Upon arrival, bad wifi. One single roll of toilet paper. No knives. Clogged shower. Barely any hot water. Worst of all, the washing machine permanently stained all of our clothes. Host refused to compensate for damages. Host was very responsive and did his best to help issues, but he has a lot of improvements to make in his property. He should not be renting out this property again until he fixes the above issues. You should fully expect to have to ask him for many things during your stay.

Kyle, Merci pour votre message et vos commentaires. Désolé que votre séjour n'ait pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes. C'est la première fois que je reçois ce type de retour sur mon appartement, et je prends vos remarques très au sérieux. Concernant le couteau : veuillez noter que la cuisine de l'appartement n'est pas une cuisine de restaurant. Vous avez passé vos vacances à Lyon, capitale de la gastronomie, où la plupart des invités apprécient de dîner à l'extérieur et de goûter les nombreuses spécialités lyonnaises mondialement reconnues. Pour ce qui est de la machine à laver, désolé mais comprenez que je ne peux pas être tenu responsable de l'utilisation que vous en avez faite. À propos de la douche, elle était en bon état avant votre arrivée, comme l'ont confirmé les précédents locataires. Cependant, je suis venu et j'ai résolu le problème aussi rapidement que possible. Concernant l'eau chaude, votre consommation a été équivalente à celle de six personnes pendant tout le séjour. Donc le chauffe-eau, qui n'est pas prévu pour une telle utilisation, n'a pas eu le temps de renouveler l'eau chaude. Je réalise que cet appartement n'est pas parfaitement adapté pour un couple avec deux jeunes enfants comme votre famille. Je vais préciser cette information dans mon annonce pour éviter tout malentendu à l'avenir. Pour votre prochain séjour, si vous cherchez des prestations spécifiques et un service hôtelier, choisissez de séjourner dans un hôtel. Salutations.

Vincent was a wonderful host, met us in the tiny alley off one of the best streets for dining in Lyon (pedestrian) to give us keys and explain access.The place was clean, complete, quiet - more so after the Thai restaurant downstairs shut down at night, with a small washer in the bathroom, good hot water shower, nicely arranged kitchen, comfy sleeping for three - our son took the couch. Our bed was small but comfy.And the view!We were a short walk from the old city and funicular to the cathedral, just a few blocks from the Cordelliers tram station. Electric plugs were conveniently located, the lighting was well done, all the basics.The hike up nearly a hundred ancient stairs could be tiresome, but for the price in central Lyon that is not a dealbreaker, unless you cannot haul luggage up.We could have used aircon, but it was ok in June. Vincent recommended an affordable restaurant a block south that was spectacular and cost us about 80 euros for three.The other options were either less central or more costly. Lyon is a young, bustling, amazing town. If you can afford to visit in any way, I recommend it. Just be prepared for some French realities, like the stairs and no AC at this price. Also no TV, but we have iPads so no matter.If you can climb a few flights it’s a good deal.
