We (married couple, 50+) stayed 2 nights in mid-May. Residence met all our expectations and exceeded some others, particularly the spaciousness of our room at this price.
Great location at the epicenter of what we felt were 3 separate central Lyons, each with a distinct feel but all within walking distance-- well, walking distance to the funicular that gets you to the top of Vieux Lyon--which you must do.
As mentioned by others, front desk staff are not particularly "gushy" but certainly efficient and informative. Decent size elevator (also lovely staircase if you prefer).
We can't think of a category of traveller that wouldn't find value in this hotel given its price, location and amenities.
