France was a very kind and welcoming host. She was flexible with check-in hours and gave instructions on public transport. The location is good when travelling by train (10-15 minute walk), and there is a bus going every few minutes to the city centre.
It was hot in Lyon during my stay but I couldn't keep the window open because of occasional noise. There was however a fan in the room. It was also nice to have an own shower in the room.
