Good neighborhood, great place, outstanding host!
Old Lyon is gorgeous and so is this apartment, ideally located five minutes from a metro station (use public transport for longer stays) and on a pedestrian street with shops, cafes and cute bistros (bouchons). It's two floors up a gently curving, stone staircase (41 steps).
The apartment was as pictured on Airbnb. Odile showed us how everything worked and gave us two sets of keys. The living room looks onto rue St. Jean, the main pedestrian street of old town (Vieux Lyon), busy with foot traffic but sonically insulated due to triple-glazed windows.
Some advice:
• Ask Odile for her list of recommended restaurants and book online in advance, especially for dinners.
• If you will be there for a longer time, get a metro-tram-bus pass from transit agency TCL (north side of Place Bellecour).
• Take an Amazon Fire Stick to watch your favorite streaming channels. You may need a VPN to show you as still being in the US.
Odile was a super host.
