We've stayed at many Airbnb's around the world and Nicolas' apartment was probably the most stylish and modern apartment of them all. The apartment is centrally controlled with digital configurations, including the shower, and has many modern touches throughout.
Its location is ideal, located right along the river and within walking distance to everything in central Lyon. It's also easily accessible from the Part-Dieu station via a quick metro ride. There is a club located across the street on a docked boat that played loud music into the early hours of Tuesday morning, but this might have been an anomaly based on its website hours.
The lack of an elevator was not an issue for us, but others have mentioned, this might not be ideal for those with issues climbing stairs.
While we appreciated the self check-in process, the apartment was unfortunately not ready at the time of check-in and we had to wait outside the door for a half hour. Nicolas was extremely responsive to our messages and communicated that it was the result of the previous guest, but some upfront communication would have been appreciated.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it as part of your visit to Lyon.
