"Ok for a short stay. Quite a few stairs to climb. Due for a proper Reno/update. Baseboards not cleaned and there should be a proper shelving for extra blankets as they appear to be stuffed into a closet on the floor. Beds we’re comfortable."

Good location, small French hotel.
"The hotel was situated very central in old town of Lyon, very close to many restaurants, sights, and tours. Rooms were snug, couple of the floors did not have elevator access. The bath towels were pretty low quality, might be our only complaint. AC worked really well so that’s a huge plus in France. ..."
