This apartment is in a very old building in the the old part of Lyon. There is a lot of activity in the neighborhood at all hours it seems, with restaurants and bars down below. If you're looking for a place to get a good night's sleep, this might not always be the best place because of the noise, but if you're looking to be close to a very interesting part of town, this is very nice. The host and hostess are both very nice and helpful, and the apartment was very clean. Anyway, I would certainly stay here again, but I might bring earplugs.
