Boris' place was fantastic and he was a great host! We didn't see much of each other and I was only there for a short time but he was very nice and gave me some good tips about the city. He also provided some very helpful maps and books; I'm sure I would have made more use of some of the guides he had if I were staying longer but I only had 2 nights (one full day) in the city.

The location of the apartment is great, as is the view! It is in the center of the city so there was a little noise at night but nothing to be concerned about (I did not need to close the window to sleep). Everything I wanted to see seemed to be within walking distance.

Finally, as a female traveling alone I felt entirely safe coming back to the apartment after dark. The street and area around it are nice and well lit.

Overall, I had a great experience and would recommend Boris' place to anyone looking to visit Lyon!
