Jean-Pierre (JP) was a fantastic host. He is very, very helpful, kind, and generous and goes to great lengths to make you feel at home in his beautiful apartment.
He was caring from before I even arrived, messaging me to make sure I was confident in finding his apartment, and when I had to change my time in arrival due to a cancelled plane, he took it in his stride and was more concerned I was OK than him being impacted.
When I arrived he showed me over a map of Lyon and points of interest, with details on how the public transport worked, and each morning he helped me in working out how to get to where I was going that day.
He also had good recommendations for places to eat locally which was very helpful in my tired state at the end of a day.
On the smaller details, he has a great coffee machine, an homely couch and living room and the large bed was extremely comfortable! This is from someone that has a bit of a pea and the princess phobia about beds.
I highly recommend staying with JP and I really hope he has a room available when I return in a couple of years to Lyon!
Thank you JP for the great experience staying with you, coming back to your place each day after working was like returning home. :)
