This place is so cool. The photos capture well just how beautifully renovated it is -- super clean, stylish, modern, really nicely appointed and well-equipped while leveraging the details of the historic structure. They don't fully capture the amazing building itself (which does mean many spirals on ancient stone stairs up to the apartment: be ready for that) or the magic of being right in the heart of Vieux Lyon. For all of these reasons, it was a fantastic place to stay. But we feel we should share that it wasn't restful. We were there on hot days, and we needed the windows open for fresh air -- but this meant zero protection from the almost-constant noise of Rue Saint Jean. People enjoy being out on the street until the wee hours, and then (at least during the June weekdays of our stay) deliveries and morning preparations began around 5:30. The back bedroom is much quieter, but in the front it's really a choice between a comfortable temperature and the quiet necessary to sleep. We'd probably stay here again given the amazing location and other amenities of the apartment, but we'd not expect good sleep if it's during the warm months.
