The apartment is in a quiet and safe residential block, yet within walking distance to Vieux Lyon, and to Parc de la Tete d'or. It's also close to Les Halles de Bocuse.
The apartment is roomy but a bit older. The elevator makes it easy to get to the 5th floor. Check-in process was painless.
In all, I think I made a good choice to stay here, given the lower cost of this apartment relative to others in the vicinity.
