Our stay at Alain's place was excellent. The apartment is comfortable (we were 4 friends and could have easily accomodated a 5th with the extra twin bed). It is simple but very clean and comfortable with an excellent location in Vieux Lyon. It is not huge, but well organized and it had everything we needed: extra towels, washer, comfortable beds, a proper kitchen and more. It also boasts a beautiful view of Notre Dame de Fourviere from one side, and Cathedral St Jean Baptiste on the other. Although we did not get a chance to meet Alain in person, he was very communicative and kind. I highly recommend his place for a stay in Vieux Lyon.
