Francoise is a super host for many reasons. Her home is clean and welcoming and the bedroom is roomy with a very comfortable bed. Her breakfast is delicious and ample with local breads and pastries, juices, good coffee and tea. The location is ideal, but if you do not have a car, public transportation is readily available. Walking up and down the hill into the city of Lyon can be daunting! As a host, Francoise went above and beyond by picking us up from the subway and dropping us off. Unfortunately we had travel problems getting to France from the U.S. so we missed a night in Forviere, but we were welcomed so warmly by Francoise that we were able to finally relax! Highly recommend!
