Good Place - Vieux Lyon! Charm, Comfort & Quiet.
We had the most amazing stay in this apartment! Absolute perfect location, quiet at night, everything you needed in the kitchen, and comfy bed. Perrine was an excellent host, great communication and so quick to respond to any questions I had. He went above and beyond with so many local recommendations, weeks before we arrived to help with planning the week we were there. Thank you for such an amazing stay in beautiful Lyon!

Canopee - T2 - Hôtel de Ville - Presqu'île
Benoit's place was as described. Very clean, close to everything and with all amenities. I highly recommend it. Benoit was also very flexible on departure and arrival times, which was much appreciated.

Bright and comfortable apartment.
We really enjoyed our stay. We knew about the stairs and took our time and did not have any issues. A/C was great since it was very hot during our stay and was so nice to have. Great location and the place was just so clean and very nicely decorated. We appreciated the coffee , snacks, juice and milk that was there for our arrival. I would love to stay again if I visit Lyon. Thank you !
