My stay at "The Terrasse" in Lyon was fabulous. Not only is Lyon a truly beautiful city full of many wonders but I also had the pleasure of being received by an excellent host.
Jean Francois arranged to meet me at the train station and even when I mixed up the times and arrived an hour earlier than planned, he still rushed down to meet me almost immediately.
With my non-existent French and his clear yet basic English, we still managed to communicate very well. Jean Francois took the time to provide me with maps of Lyon, show me all the different places to go and see and direct me to good eating and shopping districts. He has public transport tickets available, both single ride and day-trip, which you pay for at the end of your stay based on the number and type you used. It is a very helpful system and Jean Francois is one of the best hosts I have stayed with.
My breakfast each morning was a delight and supplied at a time that worked best for my schedule. Eating on the pretty little garden terrace is such a lovely way to start the day.
The room is very cosy and ideal for single travellers or couples who travel lightly. It is clean, functional and in a convenient location. The pulley system to get your luggage up to the room is classic and works brilliantly.
This was a wonderful Airbnb experience and I would happily return to Lyon and stay at The Terrase again.
Thank you Jean Francois for being such a great host!
