This is an old French apartment and is located very close to the "Les Halles de Lyon Paul Bocuse", a minute walk across the street, and about 10 mins walk from the Lyon Part Dieu train station. Monoprix is also just a minute walk away and 3 minutes walk to Picard (the frozen food store). It has all the amenities like cookware, utensils, laundry washer etc. and is good for family stay, which needs to do some cooking and laundry.

Exactly as described and then some.
We were extremely happy about our very French apartment and even happier about the accommodations by the wonderful host for an earlier check in. After an overnight transatlantic flight, it was greatly appreciated. There were a couple of times that we had to reach out to our host, and each time the communication was prompt, productive and respectful. Sometimes when you live in North America, you can forget what it may be like to live in a building that has so much wonderful history . The elevator is not for the faint of heart, but it worked perfectly and was our choice most of the time given the other option of 101 stairs. If we ever get the pleasure to revisit Lyon , we would jump at the chance to stay here again . Heather and Shawn

Lovely apartment in a great location
Thoroughly enjoyed staying here for a few nights in August. Apartment was comfortable, clean and quiet. Location is great, in particular having Les Halles so close. First visit to Lyon. Would return to both the city and the apartment. Communication from Nathalie was always prompt and helpful - thank you.

True French experience
Check in/out was simple/easy. All instructions for appliances, checking in/out/ and directions to the apartment were absolutely well-thought out and easy to follow. Bed was very, very comfortable. Apt was fully equipped. Elevator was a great asset. Transit connections were close by and easy to navigate. Grocery stores close by. Very quiet building and no street noise. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again. We loved the quaintness of this residence and felt like we were living like locals.

Elevator and Hot Water???
Really nice place, owners nice and helpful! Only problem is elevator did not work on second day; on third day, no hot water. Unfortunately we had to move since we couldn’t climb 4 stories without elevator and obviously we needed hot water. The owners we’re very helpful and in fact refunded our money so we could move to another place. I still recommend this place if those problems are corrected and judging from my dealings with owners I am certain the problems have been remedied.

Cozy and Convenient
We enjoyed our 2-week stay here. It's literally across the street from Les Halles de Lyon - think of it as the food hall at Harrod's in London, or the ferry building in San Francisco - but BETTER. We like that it's two rivers away from Old Town, which means the immediate neighborhood feels very residential, and that's exactly what we wanted. Another plus is that it's a short walk from the train station, making it easier to take side trips. The host is responsive and cordial. We'd recommend the place!

Live like a local
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great location, in a primarily residential neighborhood, it seems. Exactly as we like it, away from the masses of tourists, and close to neighborhood markets, (& some must stop touristy stops like Les Halles de Lyon- Paul Bucose). The hosts set up a perfect home-like atmosphere, even had a lovely teapot! (Thank you for that, so glad I brought my favorite tea!) This historic building includes an elevator to reach the floor. This is not meant to be the Intercontinental, or a high end hotel. But, if what you are looking for is living like a local during your stay, this is it. Uber lifts were very accessible as well, to get to to other areas of Lyon. While the apartment itself was very quiet from noise in the other apartments, and it was generally very peaceful and relaxing. However, fir light sleepers, the street noise at night and the early morning on some days was a bit loud whilst sleeping, (bar just near property, and early morning truck deliveries and trash pick up to nearby shops in the early morning). No fault of the property or hosts. But, a suggestion during your stay -We solved this by keeping the bedroom window closed, and only keeping the living room or kitchen windows open at night. The kitchen, which faces the back of the property was very quiet, and provided for a lovely breeze. I would highly recommend this location. Just lovely for our tastes in travel. Thank you to the hosts for sharing your lovely property! I do hope we can visit again.
