Monique and Jean-Marc were so kind to let me stay in their apartment for my whole four-months stay in Lyon. They are such welcoming, open, warm and helpful people, and have done everything to make me feel at home! The room is spacious and private, and the balcony is perfect for having breakfast or for reading a book in quiet surroundings. The neighborhood has everything you need of restaurants, cafes, parks, shops, and supermarkets, and three times a week there is a market with fresh fruits, vegetables, and of course cheese and baguettes in all forms! The apartment is just a three minute walk from the metro, which takes you to the city center in 10 minutes, or you can walk to the banks of the Rhône in 15 minutes. It is the best point for exploring Lyon, and Jean-Marc and Monique are the perfect hosts. They will give you tip on what to do, where to go, and teach you some French-basics if you are a foreigner. Living in their apartment has made my stay just perfect, and I am so grateful for the warm welcome and hospitality.
