Absolutely charming place! Push an ancient wooden door, walk in a corridor that could be your own "traboule", climb 40 stone steps in a circular staircase as if climbing in a tower (we are seniors and did it several times a day ) unlock a door, and here it is: a spacious apartment totally remodeled, high ceiling, great deco, large bed, gorgeous double windows, well-equipped kitchen and modern bathroom. It is located in the best area in Lyon, with all the gastronomic "bouchon Lyonnais" restaurants . It is a pedestrian area, we parked our car in the St Jean garage for $35 a day, better to not have a car, especially since the public transportations are so good, the metro is gorgeous, so much better than in Paris! The host was very welcoming and gracious about our change of arrival and answered all our questions, her English is very good. We were there during the heat wave, no air conditioning but with cross ventilation and 2 fans, it was comfortable. We really had a magnificent experience during our first stay in Lyon! As a side trip, we tried the lac des sapins , it has a biological swimming parc, and we had lunch at la Voisinee, a 4-course local-food lunch for 15 euros!
