Gabriel’s place worked out very well. I have been to Lyon often so was looking to stay in a nice neighborhood outside the city center.
The easy access to the metro into city center made it very easy to enjoy the activity of Lyon while staying in a quiet neighborhood. Monplaisir is also a nice part of town with it’s own restaurants and fun evening activities on the square.
Gabriel also stocked the apartment with great food and snacks and the space worked out great.
I would certainly stay here again on a future visit to Lyon, though perhaps not during the very hot part of the summer as it was very hard to keep cool. One positive of being in a quiet neighborhood, though, was that I was able to leave the windows open at night - something that is not possible in the city center due to noise.
