Amazing all throughout - the apartment, the view, location, host responsiveness. Clean as the clean gets. super close to metro and funiculaire and in Vieux Lyon.
There were a couple of hiccups - internet is not reliable. I was lucky to catch Giles during soccer match (really lucky because it was France playing) and he reset it, otherwise I could not do my work.
and the road in front of the building is being redone so they make crazy noise from 7.30 am, which is unfortunate, 'cause with lack of sleep it's hard to function during the day. Not something the host can control, but something he can warn about, which was not mentioned.
One weird thing that WAS in their control was to make the appartment livable for our arrival (I said when we are coming). Instead, it had window open (44F) and no heat was on (!). It was COLD!
And at $470+ per 2 nights, he can have someone else take out the trash: tourists have very little time, especially folks like me who travel and work at the same time
