This is an excellent apartment, very well-located at the top of a hill overlooking the city center of Lyon and the Rhone river. There is a spacious plaza and park just a couple of blocks from the apartment with a broad, spectacular view of the city. There is also a restaurant/cafe at the viewpoint where you can enjoy a good meal or drinks, day and night. This part of Lyon is like a city unto itself, with all of the amenities, such as restaurants, cafes, bars and bakeries.
The apartment iself is on the first floor of a building on a side street, so there is very little traffic and noise within the apartment. The apartment and the building have good security measures. Inside, the apartment is spacious, with a living room, full kitchen, bedroom with a good, firm bed and a very nice bathroom with an excellent, modern, spacious shower. All the amenities are included. Everything is very well-maintained and clean.
The living room has a very large flat screen tv, and there is another flat screen tv in the bedroom. The tv service is one of the few I have come across in French Airbnbs with English-speaking channels. Wireless service is included.
The host, Kheira, and her son, Ben, were very helpful in providing timely communications, access instructions, information about the apartment features, and information about Lyon sites and transportation.
We highly recommend Kheira’s apartment.
