Amazing!! The photos are beautiful, but even they don't do Marie's apartment justice. This spot is truly a gem in Lyon.

Marie is very friendly and accommodating. I stayed for three nights with my sister, and although we both speak very little French, Marie took the time to make sure we knew all the basics of the apartment (she doesn't speak much English, but that was fine -- hand-motions did the trick!). Marie's apartment is stocked with all the small things you need to feel at home; soap, towels, kitchen supplies, etc.

The location is perfect for getting to know Lyon. You're right next to Place des Terreaux, and can easily walk around 1 and 2 arrondissement in minutes, and you're a short hop across the bridges to 6 and 9, a hike uphill to 4. We learned the city very well on foot, and loved it.

The apartment itself is beautiful and perfect size for one or two people. We were obsessed with the main room (the one with the big orange couch), and its beautiful views of the tops of Lyon's relics -- Hôtel de Ville de Lyon, Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière. We spent a night in, making dinner, which was super easy thanks to Marie's well-stocked kitchen.

Stay here, you'll LOVE IT!! Our short stay at Marie's place made us love the beautiful city of Lyon all the more.
