We stay here approx 6 times a year as we support Lou rugby. The stade de Gerland is a 5 min walk and therefore, this hotel is very ideal. Always clean,staff attentive at all times. The area around has been seriously cleaned up and renewed of late, great improvement. The hotel is what it is a budget stay and for us exactly what we want.

Low Cost & Good Local Area

Stayed 2 nights whilst visiting ENS which is only a short walk. Good transport links with nearby Metro stations and a choice of restaurants all within walking distance. Otherwise the local area is quiet, perfect for a good night's sleep. The accommodation is perfectly acceptable for a short stay on business.

Good place to stay.

Although hotel is not in the centre it is very close to two underground stations and a tram stop, which makes getting around really easy and cheap. It is close to Lyon rugby stadium and has a great bar Ninkinsi (they brew their own beers) and a very good Japanese restaurant very close by. The staff in the hotel were friendly and helpful and there is 24hr room service.

Clean and affordable

A bit cramp-y, but ok. Good air condition (quite rare for Europe). You get a table, a chair, TV, a mysterious sofa/soft chair (I presume it could be pulled out and convert to bed/sleeping contraption, but then you will not be able to do much else in the room but sleep). You get a space to hang your cloths, but there is really no place to put you suitcase (or two). No other amenities in the room, but there is a free tea and coffee from the machine in the breakfast room at any time. Overall, it is not something to write home about, but you will not regret staying there either.

a decent option near the university

Room was clean and fixtures were in good condition. Strangely, the "double bed" and "two single beds" are actually the same thing, they just push them together or apart respectively. When I arrived my room was in "double bed" configuration. Then after the first day it got changed into "two single beds" configuration. When I mentioned that I preferred the double bed, I was informed that that costs more. The speed of the WiFi Internet was abysmal, it took close to a half hour just to download email attachments. There were some weird banging noises coming from above (no, not that kind of banging, more like somebody dropping marbles on the concrete floor at all hours of the night), I'm not sure what that was about or how much the hotel could do about it. One night there was also the smell of cigarette smoke coming through the ventilation. I assume that this was one of me neighbors violating the no-smoking policy. Otherwise, the stay was quite nice. The breakfast option (10€) is a good bet, as the selection is decent and there's not much else to eat in the morning in that neighborhood. Staff was very polite and helpful. Overall, would use again.

Breakfast was much nicer than anticipated- all self service, but good selection. Hotel small, rooms small but service very friendly and nice that you can order food at the bar and bring it to your room. Neighborhood a bit quiet but not far from the metro stop, so location was fine for me.
