Superb. Absolutely incredible. This is undoubtedly the best Airbnb experience I have had, and I would be amazed if I ever have one that is better. Patrick was such an amazingly accommodating host. He was extremely responsive, and took the time to greet me at the train station. During my stay, he spent a lot of time with me showing me around Lyon, giving me recommendations on what to do/see/eat, and even getting lunch with me--he was better than a personal tour guide! He did everything in his abilities to make sure I was enjoying myself. At the same time, if you are the kind of person who would prefer to keep to him/herself, Patrick will totally respect that.
As for the actual space, I couldn't have asked for better. It was on par with a luxury hotel. The common area was spacious, the entire apartment was spotlessly neat, and everything was well-decorated. Fantastic bathroom as well. I had a nice time just relaxing and chatting with Patrick in his living room after coming back from sightseeing.
Truly, this is what Airbnb looks like at its best. An opportunity to stay in a wonderful place and get to know equally wonderful people while spending time in a fun, new setting. Thank you Patrick for a perfect experience in Lyon!
