It was a great pleasure staying at Xaviers in Lyon. I was met at an early hour with a nice introduction to the appartment and all its facilities, and information on the neighbourhood, restaurants, bakery etc. A really kind introduction.
The appartment was flexible, very clean, with a marvellous view of the hills west of Lyon (7th floor with a lift), and equipped to perfection. Coffee and tea, juice and water was provided for the breakfast, which was an extremely welcoming gesture.
I found the neighbourhood really charming. Shops and restaurants as well as supermarkets close by as well as a large market on the Blvd de Croix-Rousse with fresh and inviting goods.
Quitely located the connections was excellent. Bus C18 took us from busstop at the doorstep to Hotel de Ville and beyond and from Place de Croix-Rousse the Metro connected us all over the city. But the quartier provides nice walks to the city center along the river Saone as well.
I most strongly recommend the appartment. You will feel welcome at Xaviers.
