This apartment is all about the view. The apartment itself is quite ordinary with “college student apartment” level furnishings. While the kitchen and bathroom are clean and up-to-date, the toilet has been shoehorned into a utility closet along with the electrical panel, mop & bucket, and water heater. As others have mentioned, the building is quite rundown and the hallway leading to the apartment is completely unlit with exposed wiring and plumbing—bring your flashlight! Management is quite aware of the problem and there really is no excuse for not having fixed it months ago. There is no air conditioning and the apartment can get very uncomfortable in warm weather. If you can ignore all that, the view of the city and the river is spectacular. Be sure to check out the Croix Rousse marché a short walk away with dozens of fruit, vegetable, cheese, and other food stands. After all the heavy cream-based Lyonnaise food, you will want to make yourself a salad for a change of pace!
