What a fantastic place, stylish and tastefully set out, and slap bang in the middle of the old quarter of Lyon. It is surrounded by bars, restaurants, little shops, ice cream parlours, 2 minutes from the Cathedral, 5 minutes from the metro, 5 minutes from the river, supermarket nearby and an excellent bakers opposite. The apartment itself is even bigger than in the pictures and the whole building had the feeling of living in a small castle. The bed was very comfy, the rainfall shower really good, the kitchen was well equipped and there are lots of little but useful essentials like oil, salt and pepper, sugar, tea and coffee etc. There is no air con because it's part of a UNESCO site, but there are a couple of really good fans for use in the main room and the bedroom which kept us cool enough in the 34 - 37 degree heat.
Odile was excellent as a host, met us on arrival, gave us lots of tips and left tourist packs, maps, restaurant lists etc, and nothing was too much trouble if we had any questions during our stay.
For visiting the city we recommend the Lyon Citycard which is excellent value and includes unlimited use of public transport (including the funicular railways and the Vaporetto river boat), a 1 hour boat trip, 23 museums, and some guided tours, and is available in 24 hour blocks from activation up to a maximum of 96 hours (4 full days), buy it online for a discount and it's between 22 and 46 euros which is much cheaper than doing stuff individually. We visited 6 museums, did a boat trip, and got about the city for 4 days and saved about 30 euros each using the card, they're great.
We highly recommend staying with Odile for a visit to the lovely city of Lyon.
