We loved our stay in arnauds place in Lyon. It was close to bike transportation and the Charpennes metro. Also walking distance to the part-dieu train station. There is a lovely bakery right downstairs on the block. We cooked dinner one night and had all the proper pans and utensils. This is on the 3rd floor (actually 4 floors up since first is 0) so would not recco if you have a lot of luggage or heavy luggage. We only had one suitcase each and small so was fine. Bed was ok for sleeping. Nice circulation with Windows on either side and a big oscillating fan that was great. Washer has dryer in same unit so make sure you want everything dried before you start. Grocery store was about 3 blocks away. A closer one was closed down.(spar)
