We loved our stay in Laetitia's apartment - it was quiet, spacious and very comfortable with everything that we needed. The area made us feel like Lyon locals for a few days, which we loved, with lots of great restaurants and local grocery stores and boulangeries just around the corner. The walk to the main shopping area / old town was about 15 minutes, but we enjoyed exploring different streets along the way and there's plenty of city bikes available if you don't want to walk. There's a few flights of stairs to get to the apartment but we thought it was good exercise after eating from the fantastic 'Antoinette: Pain & Brioche' store in the mornings...!
