This is a work in progress with extreme different levels of delivery. I am struggling to separate Lyon from the rental. We came from Saint-Raphael a small beach town. We were not ready for BIG city combat driving and mortal combat parking in atomically small parking slots. There are 2 parking garages which we found later by trial and error. Google them before you go. So getting into the house was stressful but not their fault. Take the train and metro.
We were met by Julie and Corrine. The current decor is not as staged as the photos but fine. The kitchen remodel is nice and the shower and bathroom remodels are gorgeous. The toilet has not been remodeled and really needs it. There is only 1 toilet which is tough with a large group. Also - sheets only - no blankets that we could find so strange. We had our own kid car blankets so we were ok but could be a problem. The floors are original so wood and wavy - fun. The neighbors are noise sensitive below.
The location is 2 blocks from metro which is great. Great little Vietnamese restaurant The Lotus Flower 2 blocks from house - the only place that actually made us sweat from spice in 3 weeks in France- so for the change.
So if you want a real downtown Lyon experience- this is a good one. Just do your homework before and adjust expectations accordingly.
