WWanderWabbittI was alone and needed help, Mila at reception was not only helpful, but she adds a touch of warmth in an otherwise cold day. Very much appreciated Mila!
2 mins walk from Gare, perfect!
Cons: no kettle / cups in room, but they provide hot water at breakfast area.
Not many surface tops / shelves for storage. A small desk only for one laptop. Even the bathroom has no shelves for amenities.
JJames AllenLyon is a city of stairs and hills, and this hostel is near the top of one, 15 minutes from any metro stop on foot. Lyon is a city for walking, though.
The shared kitchen was nice, but often very crowded, especially around dinner time. The capsule beds in the dormitory were fine, comfortable and quiet. My locker's door didn't quite work, so I had to stow my valuables with the front desk during the day.
Staff was young, pleasant, and helpful.
While most of the guests were backpackers, there was a minority of older travelers, often staying in rooms.
ผผู้เข้าพักFar from the airport. Got a bus (47) and the stop was about 5mins walk away but not very accessible with a big suitcase! The woman at the desk didn't speak much English so took a while to book in.. My room was upstairs and no lift so had to lug my suitcase upstairs... very thin walls/floors so could hear everything. Also the shower was not able to be put on the wall so you would of had to hold it whilst showering?? I stayed one night and just avoided the shower. You get what you pay for I suppose, okay for a one night stopover but otherwise you in the middle of an industrial estate so no amenities close! (except for the breakfast)
ผผู้เข้าพักÇa fait plus d'une année que j'y vais lors de mes passages sur Lyon, mais cette fois-ci, nous sommes restés une semaine. Je n'ai pas aimé. De un, au niveau de la vaisselle, il y avait des poils ou des cheveux, pareil au frigo, ça ma dégoûtait et j'étais moi-même obligée d'acheter des produits pour nettoyer. J'ai mis la pancarte pour qu'ils viennent nettoyer la chambre, personne n'est passé. Au niveau des femmes de ménage, je connais le métier, ma mère est femme de ménage. Certaines, quand on leur demande de changer de serviettes, elles nous renvoient à l'accueil et d'autres nous les donnent. Même sous le drap, il y avait des poils. Vraiment déçue. Je pense qu'il y a du laisser-aller. Au début, ce n'était pas comme ça. Vraiment à revoir.
Dommage.
Pour l'acceuil cava
ผผู้เข้าพักGreat location, 5min walk to the station, there’s a nice restaurant next door as well as a small shop to buy any last minute toiletries or snacks and drinks.
The room itself was good, small bathroom but the beds were comfy and it just does the job.
Would stay again if I visit Lyon again.
