We picked this apartment because of the location in La Croix Rousse which my wife preferred, and the outdoor garden which is almost always life changing with our three small children. Overall this apartment really delivers on those aspects. The garden was beautiful, the neighborhood quiet, and the walk to the bars and restaurants of La Croix Rousse less than 10 minutes. The arrival was painless with someone there to give us the key and show us around the place.
There are some less than ideal aspects to the apartment that you should be aware of. The bedrooms are extremely tiny, and the ceilings are not much higher than around 180cm. Many taller people will not be able to stand up straight in these rooms. In addition there are wooden beams that drop around 6 inches below that level so pretty much anybody besides children will have to duck multiple times to make it in and out of the bedrooms with their head intact.
The decor of the apartment is extremely idiosyncratic, and will likely not please everybody. I thought it was funny, my wife on the other-hand was not a fan.
The other major issue with the place is that it's extremely dark. They've placed immovable sheer curtains over the entire surface of all the large windows, which gives the whole place a cave-like quality even at midday on a sunny day. One is definitely not inclined to spend much time inside. The garden is a saving grace in this instance but unfortunately it rained during our stay so we didn't get to take advantage of it.
