Agnès's beautiful home is a huge top floor apartment located in a quite residential neighborhood in the Croix-Rousse. The home is well-equipped with all the amenities necessary for feeling at home in Lyon. We especially appreciated the double toilets, a rarity for apartments of comparable size, price, and location.
Agnès left us with detailed information on the apartment, as well as lots of helpful travel materials for Lyon and the surrounding area. Her two parking spots are an enormous asset, as street parking can be scarce, and lot parking expensive. Know, however, that the spots are tight, so be sure to rent a compact car, or at least one with good maneuverability.
This was our second trip to Lyon, and I feel strongly that the Croix Rousse gives you a much better feel for the real daily life of the city than more well-known, and therefore exceedingly touristy, neighborhoods, such as Vieux Lyon and Presqu`ìle. The Croix-Rousse Market is phenomenal, and located less than 500m away. Be prepared, however, for walking up and down stairs, as this neighborhood is built onto the side of a hill. Expect spectacular views awaiting you around every corner as compensation.
In short, I enthusiastically recommend Agnès's accommodation to all visitors looking for a beautiful and spacious home boasting rooftop views and fantastic amenities, including 2 toilets and 2 private parking spots, all located in a real, vibrant, and centrally-located Lyonnais neighborhood.
