The apartment was exactly as shown on the pictures. You cannot beat its location in the Old Lyon, right on Rue St Jean which is the main street there and yet the flat is extremely quiet thanks to great double glazing. The building is even mentioned in many tourist books so you are really in the middle of it and can admire the beautiful architecture from your window...The flat is also close to all the beautiful cathedrals in the area and there are great walks around. We were there in November and the weather was cold but the flat was always nice, warm and very comfortable. The decor inside is great, you have some older features but it has been refurbished with taste and the kitchen and bathrooms are very modern. The flat is also very spacious and we did find that we spent quite a bit in time in it despite our exploring as it was so nice. There is also a great little boulangerie just downstairs for morning croissants and other delicious pastries so you can have breakfast in the flat and there is all you need with a Nespresso machine and many teas. As it is in the heart of old Lyon, it is full of traditional 'Bouchon' restaurants and bars and there are also small convenient shops for things like milk, etc. Odile was a very friendly host and explained to us everything about the flat and things to do in the area. The flat was just perfect, I would definitively stay there again and would recommend it to anyone wanting to visit Lyon, you will not be disappointed!
