Unbeatable location - charming and well-equipped apartment
This ingeniously designed apartment offers a surprising lot of living space and facilities without appearing cramped. Well equipped with everything, including for basic cooking. Excellent bed. Good instructions by host. Wonderful location in an old building in the colorful, animated Croix-Rousse quarter - which seems to be a world of its own. Metro station and several bus lines just a few steps away. Lots of cute little shops off Place Croix Rousse.People taller than 1.80 m risk bumping their head in some parts of the apartment. Steep, narrow staircase may be a challenge the first time with heavy baggage, but gives you some authentic "Canut" feeling. (And stairs are part of Lyon's DNA anyway.)Highly recommended!
