This small studio in Lyon old town is beautifully designed, has everything you could need, is spotlessly clean and the little terrace where you can enjoy a drink and feel like a local, is an added bonus. The location is perfect for exploring Lyon, and is within easy reach of a bus stop to get to the train station and Croix Rouge. One downside is that there was a strong smell of drains permeating the apartment, apparently a problem from time to time in the old part of Lyon. The owner is aware of this, so worth checking out before booking. We would also have welcomed a handbook on the studio, with information on how to use the cooker, heating etc. And the local information/recommendations on bars, restaurants that some hosts provide would also be great - this studio is in a street rich in history, just a few steps from the entrance to a traboule - it would be great to have those local insights that enrich a stay. All in all, a lovely studio in a perfect location.
