We really enjoyed our stay at Kevin and Emilie's place. The location was surprisingly good, considering you're about 25 minutes from the old town. There was so much to see and do nearby that we felt that we were seeing parts of Lyon that other tourists would probably miss. There were loads of restaurants, bars and cafe's on our doorstep plus the gorgeous Tete D'Or park is less than 10 mins away.
The apartment itself is small but it has everything you need for a short break. Kevin & Emilie were very friendly and quick to respond to emails. They had put together a guide for us, to ensure that we got the most out of our trip.
The only thing I would say is that if you have a bad back, the low ceiling on the mezzanine level may be a problem for you but we thought it was great fun, crawling into bed every night!
