The location of the house is amazing. We stayed 7 days and went to Bellecour (main square) TCL bus operator (bus stop outside) where we purchased a 7 day pass for 22 euros giving access to ALL transport. Funicular is 2 minutes walk away, buses outside door. The system is ultra simple and the location meant we were able to explore the WHOLE city fast, efficiently and at a minimal cost. One of the best bakeries I know in France is a few steps away (grains de sucre) and there are a few local shops around it too. As we ate out mostly, it wasn't difficult for us to buy a few basics.
The house is lovely, decorated with taste and very light. Be aware loo and bathroom are downstairs so not a house for limited mobility but then neither is Lyon which can be up and down often and is HUGE.
Philippe, our host, is a perfect host and gentleman. The house has plenty of bin bags, loo rolls, detergent, cooking oils, vinegars etc which, again, is great. We called on Philippe a couple of times and he gave us immediate assistance.
We would recommend this home 100 %. Fabuleux... MERCI PHILIPPE.
