Marc clearly loves Lyon and will help in any way possible. We loved that the apartment is a little quirky, but also very stylish, with very high ceilings and windows in the living area. The low beams in the upper areas take a few moments to get used to, but add to the charm overall. There's some nice little touches throughout. Location is good, but take the metro to the old city if you want to walk a lot once you get there. The nearby Parc de Tete d'Or is also a great park, en route to the Contemporary Art Museum. Overall, Marc's place is highly recommended.
