Jérôme and his family are incredibly friendly and welcoming (and speak fluent English as well). The room is nice and very clean, the living room and the connected garden are beautiful. It's a gorgeous & quiet idyll in the center of Croix Rousse, in a historical building with the typical high ceiling of "les canuts".
You can explore the most parts of Lyon by foot from this location, and in the surrounding streets are a lot of little shops, stores and bars (including a little superette which is open until the late night and just around the corner).
Fully recommended! :)
