Laurent's apartment is everything you could possibly hope for during your stay in Lyon. We stayed only for one night before our flight home but it was easily one of the loveliest apartments we saw during our trip through Europe so I want to take the time to write this review.
Location: Fantastic - everything you need at your doorstep.
Your host: Friendly & helpful without intruding. Laurent lives in the apartment next door and offered extra help (such as booking us a taxi) but gave us plenty of space and made us feel very welcome.
The apartment: Beautifully styled, spacious, clean, bright. All the cooking amenities needed for foodies (if you can resist the fantastic restaurants Lyon has to offer). Lovely big shower and bath with good pressure and hot water.
Local tips: Laurent has put some serious love and time into creating a large folder with every tip you could think of, from restaurants to grocery stores open late on Sundays. Seriously, this folder is amazing. We were there for only one night but I spent a lot of time reading through this book anyway because the perfectionist in me loved all the little details Laurent has added. It's a work of art.
You won't regret staying in this apartment. I only wish we could have stayed longer!
