If you’ve read prior reviews, you know what to expect. You get a large spacious apartment but part of the price you have to pay is walking up 6 flights of floor. The unit was clean and well appointed. We loved the large windows opening onto the street. In the mornings, sipping our expressos with the windows open it seemed like heaven. The AC unit is okay if you move it the bedroom at night. The area is very loud at night with restaurants and bars nearby but that is part of the price of a great location. Bringing earplugs for sleep is advisable. With this apartment you get a good feel of the heart of Lyon. Provided you are comfortable with climbing 6 flights of steps, this apartment is recommended.
