Marlon and his place are as unique and wonderful as Lyon. The apartment has this incredibly interesting construction with all the high end modern appliances you can imagine inside the apartment built into a historic old stone building. The guest bed is super comfortable with a shower en-suite, shared bathroom upstairs and a massive window on the ceiling. On top of the apartment itself being super comfortable, the location did not disappoint, I've never been to Lyon and I lucked out finding this little gem, it landed me in the heart of the action and some of the most beautiful world renowned parts of Lyon. And right by an amazing bakery, Antoinette's, that I visited based on Marlon's recommendation, great bread and pain au chocolat to die for! It was so easy to pop in and out of the apartment during a day of wandering or shopping.
And last but not least Marlon himself was the best! Super nice and easy going and respectful of his guest's space. But if you wanted to talk, and I recommend you do, he's just a ton of fun to hang out with. He's incredibly interesting and talented; sports, design and to all you English people he's a great french teacher!
Two thumbs up!
