Thanks to Leila for receiving us upon check-in, and being so prompt to our communication. We enjoyed her hospitality and the wonderful stay at the apartment. It is a few minutes walk from the Charpennes metro, as well as easily accessible via tram to/fro Part-Dieu station. It comes with a lift, no issue for luggage. The apartment is modern, comfortable and spacious for 2 travellers.
Tip - would suggest keeping euro coins (or credit card) in your pocket to buy the TCL Lyon transport ticket (apparently dollar notes not accepted at machines).
