Isli’s place is brilliant! Isli met us when we arrived and had all the windows open and a fan going as it was very hot in Lyon at the time. The appartment had everything we needed for our stay, plenty of cutlery and dishware, a washing machine and dishwasher. The bathroom was clean and spacious, a separate toilet to the bathroom. There was plenty of storage space for all our clothes.
It’s easy to find, only a 20 minute walk from the Lyon Part-Dieu train station which both the Eurostar and the Airport express go into. It’s 3 metro stops from Bellecour, the main centre of Lyon, and 4 stops into the old town, or its about a 20-30 minute walk. It has a 24/7 supermarket just around the corner (I believe the only one in Lyon?) which is well stocked and very useful.
The sofa bed pulls out into a double bed and is very comfortable to sleep on with a topper and bedding provided.
It’s on the 3rd floor, with a lift, and is safe enough to leave the windows open in the summertime. We hired a car and didn’t have any trouble finding free parking on the street outside.
Overall a brilliant stay, a huge thank you to Isli for lending us his space for the week!
