Jacques and Marie are fabulous hosts! The apartment is amazing, very spacious and located within walking distance of many attractions and restaurants. Jacques came to meet us at the bus stop, and escorted us back to the apartment, only a couple of minutes away. Marie stopped by later with a couple of slices of the local speciality, Lyonnaise Pink Praline Tart. Such great hospitality!
The apartment itself is an amazing mix of everything modern in a 17th century building! You will have everything you need to make your stay perfect. The bed is large and comfortable, the bed linens and towels were very soft and luxurious, the kitchen is well-appointed although you will probably be going out to eat :) The living/dining room is a beautiful place to have breakfast or just enjoy a cup of tea or coffee.
Although the apartment is excellent, the real standout is the warm welcome and the assistance in choosing and booking some of Lyon's finest restaurants. If you really love to experience the culinary culture of Lyon, you could not ask for better hosts! Jacques and Marie have excellent taste, and I would follow any of their recommendations without hesitation. They really went the extra mile to make sure that we had tables booked for each night of our stay in Lyon.
I hope that we return to Lyon so that we can stay here again, I recommend it very highly and without any hesitation. It is a shame that I can only give five stars!!
