We spent 3 nights in July 2022 at the apartment. It is centrally located so getting to many of the sights by foot was convenient. Lots and lots of cafes and restaurants locally...you will not go hungry! For gelato lovers note that there is a very popular store just downstairs which we indulged in!
This apartment is in a very dense part of Lyon and thus, subject to considerable late night & early morning noise from party-goers and loud cars. If you are looking for peace and quiet at night, this may not be the place to stay.
Apartment amenities were very basic. The WiFi desperately needs to be upgraded as it was even slower than the free WiFi from the business downstairs - I had to participate in a Zoom meeting and could barely get audio.
The apartment was clean although it shows signs of wear and tear. Great shower (very clean) with plenty of hot water. Storage in the apartment is limited (no closet). The clothes washer was a plus although some directions on how to operate it would have been great...there is a self-serve laundromat just around the corner if you have a lot to wash and dry.
The check in process is a bit complicated but manageable. You have to pick the keys up from a small grocery store nearby first, then use a fob and large key to get in the building itself. There are photos included in your check-in procedure which are critical in understanding how all that happens. Check out was easy...just bring the keys back to the store where you got them!
Lyon has a lot of sights and places to see and the location of this AirBnB was ideal for getting around by foot.
