Had a great stay at Emilie's place. The studio is clean and roomy, and the balcony is great for morning coffee. Emilie's friend Fatima met me on my arrival to give me the keys and was kind enough to drive me around the neighborhood to show me where to find the grocery store, ATM, etc. The only slight drawback about this place is the location. Lyon has a great public transport system, but the apartment is about 1km walk from the closet metro or tramway stop and the neighborhood is mostly university housing without any bars/restaurant/shops in the immediate area. Once you make the effort to get downtown, though, Lyon is a great city and this is a very nice place to come relax after a day exploring.
