A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“I stayed for a weekend in early March. The hotel is accessible to a tram that is only about 10 minutes away. You can also walk to the center fairly quickly ! As a solo traveler, I felt safe staying here alone and coming back at night. There were many cafes and restaurants around. There is a paid breakfast option for around 13€. Given this is a budget hotel there aren’t many amenities. In the summer, the rooms probably get pretty warm so take this into consideration if you’re staying here later in the year. My room faced a busy street with a bar. I was on the 3rd floor and I could still hear some light noise with the shutters closed so definitely request a room higher up if you’re a light sleeper.”
“The location is good, with a tram stop very nearby. It is also easy to walk to old Lyon, and pleasant to stroll along the river. Several grocery shops and restaurants are close by. I would say the neighbourhood feels very safe, and the overall atmosphere is nice. The room itself is a bit dark in the evenings, but everything else is fine. The staff working here are welcoming.”
“A great budget option, the rooms are clean and well maintained, but don't expect luxury. The bed and pillows leave a lot to be desired but if you aren't a fussy sleeper they're fine. Friendly staff, and in a great location”
“My stay was extremely enjoyable because of the professional, courteous, and helpful staff. The staff at this location went out of their way to assist me with all my inquiries. In addition, they were proactive when providing service.”
