Pierre's apartment is clean, modern and large by French standards. The metro station is two blocks away and the tram is also close by. There is a Franprix grocery around the corner. The patisserie kitty-corner from the Franprix has good food, especially get the tartlette au framboise (raspberry tarts), they are amazing. Also get the Lyon City Card to get free public transportation and museum admissions and a river cruise; definitely worthwhile. Elizabeth was very helpful in giving us access to the apartment and showing it to us. We would definitely stay there again.
