We absolutely loved staying in Marie's apartment on our first trip to Lyon. After multiple tiny Parisian hotel rooms, her beautiful, spacious apartment was a breath of fresh air. The location was perfect for seeing the city, right by the metro in a cool part of town, and walkable to many different areas. The place was very nicely decorated, but felt very charming and homey. The washing machine was a nice amenity to have, since I was in the latter half of a two week trip and desperately needed to wash clothes. We also really appreciated the local city guidebook, as it had some great recommendations. Some of our favorite meals of the trip came from places recommended in there!
A few things to note:
The stairs to get up to the apartment are no joke when you're carrying bags - but the view from the apartment makes it all worth it!
There was a Nespresso machine but no pods for the coffee. Maybe just a mistake, but it would have been nice to have.
No dryer for the clothes, but the apartment was plenty big to have room to air dry everything.
Overall, this was our favorite place to stay our whole trip. I would highly recommend Marie's apartment for anyone looking to stay in Lyon.
