Slightly cramped in kitchen area as there were 6 of us and we needed all the other space for beds inc. the mezzanine (best for children). Also, the bathroom is off the main bedroom which meant washing arrangements slightly awkward. The age of the property means no aircon but this was not an issue for us as we actually had a rainy night and fans also helped. Parking a challenge and can be very pricey in Lyon

Quirky apartment in an old building and the high ceilings offset slightly cramped living space (there were 6 of us). Well located near the opera house, hotel de ville and museum and with a number of very highly rated restaurants on doorstep (inc Michelin stars). Great transport links to rest of city through metro. Good value too.

The loft where you sleep is difficult to get up and down via the stairs, you need to be careful to not hit your head. It is not possible to stand in the loft area, so it makes more sense to have somewhere to hang clothes downstairs, as you will likely get dressed downstairs in the living space. The apartment was on the 3rd floor, which is only accessible by stairs though we did not find this as problem but it may be important for others particularly with heavy suitcases. In this loft, there is no washing machine, however the neighbouring one does have one.

We felt the apartment had everything we needed for our stay including a couch, tv, dining table, all necessary cutlery and dishes and washing up liquid, however, a tea towel was not provided for drying was not provided. The owner has made great use of the space available. The shower is very good and modern with an overhead rainforest option or handheld shower hose - shower and sink are separate to the toilet. The location was very close to Hotel de Ville (City Hall) which has a metro station.

The inventory instructions were not clear and were annoying.

Location - short distance to shops and restaurants. Very quiet and beds comfortable.

Little details like no coffee pods for the coffee machine, or dishwasher pods were disappointing.

Location is perfect. Exceptional restaurants and bars on your doorstep, and easy access to everywhere including public transport. The apartment is attractive, modern, and overlooks the Rhone.

Pretty and clean. Great location - close to metro, shops and lovely area. The hostess was friendly but she only told us about the EUR 250 deposit required two days before we traveled when we were already on the plane with no WiFi. This should have been mentioned at the point of booking weeks before.

The conversion of a classic building into "loft-style" studio felt a little unfinished although perfectly functional

Amazing location, great neighbourhood. Loved the traditional building. Apartment spacious for 2 - nice linen /towels etc. Great shower. Access and Comms with the hosts all worked well

c

location is great, close to 2 metro lines and fine art museums the bed was not to confy but was not bad either; tv remote was not able to change channels and the host had no communication what so ever, they also need to add at least one more toilet paper roll since they are so small.

Lack of storage space meant that the little floor space was taken up by suitcases, but for a two night stay this was fine

Great location in beautiful old building

There were some issues with the lights flickering/some lights not working. As well as some minor scuff marks or minor damage around the apartment

The location and ease of access into the apartment made this location very enjoyable to spend our vacation in.

Be aware 80 steps to get to 3 rd floor, would have been useful to have a bedside table at side of double bed to put things on and maybe a hook or something on wall for clothes

The double bed was located on a mezzanine platform. It was lovely... But access was via a vertical ladder with a pole for support, and it is not ideal for anyone who needs to get up during the night to go to the loo - or for elderly people. The benefit of the apartment being located on the ground floor of the building was negated by the fact that the bed access required agility and stability. Otherwise, very comfortable.

Beautiful apartment. Not at 21 Royale - but located on Quai André Lassange. Right beside the river. Stylish. Very handy for the areas a tourist would most want to visit. Very close to Opera House and Hotel de Ville and Museum of Beax Arts. Round the corner from the Metro to connect to The Rhone Express to get to airport. Easy. Handy for the arty "silk workers" area. Easy access to main shopping street leading to the old town. Very well equipped apartment. Extremely quiet within a courtyard. Most enjoyable stay. Very comfy bed and good quality bedding.

There wasn't a key for the bins so we just had to leave our rubbish in the flat but we were only there for one night so it wasn't too bad.

Clear instructions.

I did like the fact that our room was on top of the living room, it felt like there was no privacy.

The wide space. The kids loved
