Helene's apartment is perfect. It was large, beautifully decorated with artistic touches, light and airy with large windows overlooking a very quiet courtyard. Its on the 5th floor (and there's a lift!) and is in the perfect location - just outside the more touristy Old Lyon, with lots of bars and restaurants frequented by locals, but literally 5 mins walk from the beautiful old streets of Lyon. Check in was easy (although we struggled with the key a little bit, it's quite stiff!) and Helene kindly let us check out an hour later. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need including tea, coffee, milk, butter, and even homemade jam and marmalade!! Such lovely touches, can't wait to return.
