There is a serious discrepancy between the description and the reality. The place needs renovation, refurbishment, new furniture and a proper air conditioner. At the moment, it is rather overpriced and disappointing - at least @ around €200 a night. It is very central, thus ideal for discovering Lyon, but this also implies that you have the restaurants under the front windows (noise until late, cleaning in the morning) and the kitchens of the restaurants at the back (rubbish, smell, noise and smoking cooks) in the courtyard. A gloomy, dark entrance and a dark spiral staircase. If you’re in your 20s, you may enjoy this, but we didn’t.
