The location is excellent for touring/transportation. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet comprehensive. Bed was firm but comfortable. Air conditioning was iffy. We needed to move rooms as we and staff had difficulty setting up the A/C. We also suggest a rubber mat in the slippery tub/shower.

Great small hotel that needs a bit of a refresh

Great location and friendly, helpful staff. Rooms are looking a bit worn and tired, especially for the price, and the selection of TV channels in English was poor. The onsite bar and restaurant is good. The location is excellent, close to metro and bus options, as well as shopping and restaurants. If you are not going to spend much time in your room, this is an ideal place to stay in Lyon.

Claustrophobic room, rude staff, great location

Great location but smelly!

Excellent location. Sadly, that’s about it. Breakfast at €19 p/p was boring. The corridor skirting boards and our door were in desperate need of refurbishing. Our room was cold and no facilities (fridge, kettle or coffee machine) BUT worst of all: the shower drain bad smell. We have never experienced anything like this before, and we do travel a lot. The receptionist came up and poured some product down the drain but it did not eliminate the odor.

Excellent staff!

Breakfast was excellent. Staff was always attentive. Hotel had sent me an email before I arrived asking preferences for my stay and it was as if they didn’t read my answers. All issues were addressed, but I had been impressed with the effort to streamline and 3cpedite my choices.

Was disappointed with the room, towels(hard and damp), size of shower, no telephone in the room. The first floor was very nice but the third floor smelled all the way to the room and wasn’t any 4 star like room I’ve ever seen.

The room door blocked no sound and i was next to the laundry room and staircase, meaning late nights and early mornings for me. I was on the lowesr floor meaning every flush in the nighr came through my room. Other than the noise, i couldn't fault it. Id willingly come back

No heating at 38 F degrees. Bath full of mold has no extractor, all pipes are for you to view, walls in bath room with cracks that suggest structural issues. They hide behind eco to not supplying any amenities. Youthe travel agent should make sure the star rating is real. No fridge.I have stayed at hostels with better rooms and amenities. Would give the only 2 stars. The outside of building is nice , so it decieves you. But travel agent is also responsible for letting hotel lie.

Chambre propre, literie de qualité, salle de bains complète, mais pas de chauffage. Il faut demander un chauffage d’appoint (rapidement installé). Ascenseur unique, mais cela n’a pas dérangé. On aurait apprécié une machine à café dans la chambre. Wifi médiocre en chambre. Prises en nombre limité. Style de la chambre et calme appréciés.

The room was clean and staff were helpful. Late check out (12pm) was good. Only thing is that you have to leave the key at the front reception and there is one elevator (I was level 5 so stairs weren’t really feasible with luggage). As long as you are not in a rush anywhere it’s fine.
