The hotel was about a 25 minute walk from the Gare de Lyon Part-Dieu. The neighbourhood was quiet and clean and a block away from a busier shopping and dining area. The front desk staff were friendly and the room was small, but clean. The hotel appeared to have been renovated in the last few years, but the lobby and stairs were starting to look a bit worn and shabby. The shower in my room had good water pressure, but no shower curtain or door and no matter how I positioned myself, water went everywhere! Both mornings I soaked my towels drying up the water that had sprayed all over the floor. The bed was comfortable. No safe, kettle, or coffee in the room. Complimentary earplugs were provided, which I appreciated because I could hear the people in the rooms next door. I would recommend this hotel for the traveller on a bit of a tighter budget who just needs a clean, safe, and private place to sleep.
