We really enjoyed our stay in this historic apartment in the very heart of Lyon. The apartment has ancient stonework, a miraboule entrance and circular stone stairs, and amazing views of one the most lively and colorful streets in Lyon. Everything is at hand that we needed, both within the apartment and easy walking to shops and restaurants.The owner, Marie, is lovely to communicate with and responds to questions quickly. Beds were comfortable, water pressure and hot water was great, the apartment maintained a pleasant temperature, and enjoyed using the well-stocked kitchen to do a little cooking.A special thank you, also, to the owner of Le Layon restaurant, Stéphane, who helped 3 tired and confused travellers open the keybox when we arrived. (You must try his restaurant! Wonderful food!)

Our host was very accommodating and helped us with special requests even on the very last day of our stay. The location is amazing: immediately on possibly the busiest and most fun street and all of Lyon! The energy and vibe of the local restaurants and patrons was both fun and inspiring. This is a great place to stay. But be certain you can negotiate narrow circular stairways before you secure this location.

They were welcoming us nicely. Some light bulbs were not working so we needed to get them. The lock outside got broken in the middle of our stay so my husband couldn’t come in the building after he went out for jogging. Things are old but still usable. We loved the location. Very very convenient for anything.

Great Location

This apartment is well located amongst some really great restaurants just downstairs and the sights. Everything is with walking distance. The only thing I would mention is the apartment is on the second and getting your luggage up the stairs might present a challenge for some. I would recommend this apartment to anyone who is staying in the beautiful city of Lyon

Lovely French Apt, great location!

The apt is as described, and the space is great with four big windows for perfect light! The apt was situated in a great location, great restaurant just downstair, we ate there 2x's. Couple of coffee cafe's near by to experience the French bakes was a plus. A nice walk to the Old Lyon just beautiful. We had abit of issue with the lockbox, but this was resolved and our stay at Marie's place was very nice. I highly recommend.

Loved the location! It was very hot and the fans helped a bit, but it would be nice if there was air conditioning. The one negative was the general cleanliness. Just from walking on the floors, our feet were completely black on bottom.

Exactly what we were looking for

The location is perfect, one block from the Saône and a the wonderful open market of Saint Antoine. The owner is very gracious and accommodating.We did not find the instructions for the TV, nor the remote control for the existing air conditioning. The apartment gets very warm and the street is very noisy at night so opening the four large windows on the street is not an option at night. We made it work with the multiple fans and enjoyed our stay very much.

Not clean. We had to buy sheets for beds due to bugs! Sponges in bathroom had hair from previous visitors (I assume?) Cooking utensils/ dishes and glasses did not seem clean, so we used disposable glasses. Lastly one of our party left to stay a hotel initiallyand we followed after our second night

Je suis désolée que vous n ayez pas aimé l appartement. Je loue depuis très longtemps c est la première fois que quelqu’un dit devoir acheter du linge puis dis être resté qu une nuit Cet appartement est très bien placé pour visiter c est dommage de l avoir quitté plutôt surtout si vous avez acheté des draps . En ce qui concerne les insectes je suis également surprises vous ne m avez pas envoyé de photos pour me dire de quels insectes il s agit Je vous rappelle également que vous aviez demandé à arriver plus tôt nous avions un départ la veille et nous avons fait le maximum pour que vous puissiez arrivée à l heure de votre demande. Malheureusement la personne qui devait vous accueillir a attendu presque deux heures sans être prévenu de votre retard
