Sylvie's apartment is in a very convenient yet peaceful part of Lyon. She wasn't in the country when we were around but she had somebody opened the door for us and spoke to us over the phone. Her apartment is intricately and beautifully decorated. We were comfortable during the stay. The only drawback was because it was the start of Summer and it was stuffy at night we opened the windows and the mosquitoes feasted on us. Otherwise it was an enjoyable stay :)
