When I arrived at the apartment in Lyon, Camille received me very warmly. I lived in the apartment for four month during my semester abroad (ERASMUS) in Lyon and I can totally recommend it. The apartment is fully furnished with a separate bathroom and a tiny room for hanging up clothes which is quite convenient. According to the description the apartment has 12 m2, which is due to the sloping walls I think. Actually the apartment is much taller. The WLAN works very well and there is also a laundry 5 to 10 minutes from the house by bus and feet. Due to two windows the apartment is very bright and as the windows are towards the garden it is also quiet. The bus stop with two bus lines available is directly in front of the house which was great. Especially when I came home late I appreciated that very much. The apartment is in the first district and located between Hôtel de Ville and Croix Rousse. At Hôtel de Ville and Croix Rousse, which are both 5 to 10 minutes from the house, there are grocery stores, cafés, bakeries, shops etc. Also there is a pharmacy, a bakery and a little grocery store 5 to 10 minutes by feet from the apartment. Both buses go to Hôtel de Ville, the centre of Lyon, where there is the next metro station. My university was on the other side of the river and with public transport it took me less than 20 minutes to go there. On the opposite of the apartment there are also stairs which lead directly to the Saône, one of the two rivers in Lyon. I often used them when I went for a run or to go for a walk on the quay.
Camille and her family live on the same floor and they always cared if I needed something. We had a really good relationship and I really appreciated to have such nice, hospitable and friendly renters. Camille often gave me good tips for shops, restaurants, cultural events, museums etc. All in all I can really recommend the apartment for a stay during a semester abroad as it is very well located, close to the centre and well accessible by public transport. I really enjoyed my stay in Lyon, the apartment and the acquaintance with Camille and her family was one of the major reasons therefore.
