Odile is a very welcoming, well-informed host who met us at the apartment. The apartment itself is on the second-floor of a Renaissance building that is full of historic character in Vieux Lyon. It has high ceilings with exposed wooden beams, very comfortable furniture and recently renovated kitchen and bathroom. The bedroom is very quiet. Although the living room overlooks a busy pedestrian street, there is little noise, even with the windows wide open. Odile has compiled a notebook of restaurant recommendations by price category. The three we tried were outstanding. I look forward to staying here again and sampling a few more the next time we are lucky enough to land in Lyon— soon, I hope.
