Julien's place is stylish and comfortable with a lot of amenities that make you feel at home in a new city. It's perfectly located (walkable from the train station) above a street filled with restaurants, a wine shop and a patisserie. Julien's mother recommended a restaurant a short walk away called Les Lyonnais that was delicious and authentic (try the quenelle). Be aware that you will need to climb quite a few stairs but you'll be rewarded with a wonderful view and distance from the noise of the street. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat!
