I stayed in this apartment for a month over the summer to do some writing and I loved every moment of it. The space is large and bright and welcoming. There is a wonderful contrast between the river facing lounge room with spectacular views across the Saône River to Vieux Lyon and Fourvière, making you feel connected to the heart of Lyon - and the quiet retreat of the bedroom situated facing the interior courtyard. As others have mention the bed is indeed large and comfortable! Spacious shower and also a bath to relax in. Noise is not really an issue, of course you are situated in the centre of the city, but with the windows closed or sleeping in bed it is a very quiet apartment. The location is fantastic; bakeries, bars, restaurants, pubs, grocery stores, marché, boulangeries, bus, metro etc all within walking distance. Jean-Baptiste was a wonderful host, very friendly and communicative with many recommendations and great conversation. I hope I can stay here again!
