10/10
Vincent was a wonderful host, met us in the tiny alley off one of the best streets for dining in Lyon (pedestrian) to give us keys and explain access.The place was clean, complete, quiet - more so after the Thai restaurant downstairs shut down at night, with a small washer in the bathroom, good hot water shower, nicely arranged kitchen, comfy sleeping for three - our son took the couch. Our bed was small but comfy.And the view!We were a short walk from the old city and funicular to the cathedral, just a few blocks from the Cordelliers tram station. Electric plugs were conveniently located, the lighting was well done, all the basics.The hike up nearly a hundred ancient stairs could be tiresome, but for the price in central Lyon that is not a dealbreaker, unless you cannot haul luggage up.We could have used aircon, but it was ok in June. Vincent recommended an affordable restaurant a block south that was spectacular and cost us about 80 euros for three.The other options were either less central or more costly. Lyon is a young, bustling, amazing town. If you can afford to visit in any way, I recommend it. Just be prepared for some French realities, like the stairs and no AC at this price. Also no TV, but we have iPads so no matter.If you can climb a few flights it’s a good deal.
