Bertrand’s family hospitality was amazing. Emilie greeted us in a early check-in and showed us everything the apt had to offer, also gave us several tips on places and locations to visit. They also answered quickly when needed.
The place had everything you would need for either a short or long stay. The kitchen was complete, cooktop, microwave, coffee machine and dish washer. There was also a washing machine on the bathroom. And all heaters worked fine.
Croix-Rousse has its charms, with great restaurants close by, markets and local boulangeries. The metro is a short walk away and has plenty of buses to get to anywhere in Lyon.
On the downsides, the room was a bit too dark compared to the pictures, could be because we went during winter. And its pretty noisy overall due to the creaking in the floors, you could hear steps from people upstairs all day long.
Nonetheless, It was an awesome stay. Lyon is such a cute city, full of histories but also really modern. Looking forward to come back someday.
