10/10 Exceptional

Great value for money

I had a great 6 day stay at Pilo. The pods are a great way to have a bit of privacy and feel like you're more in your own space, though don't be fooled – it's still fundamentally a hostel, but loads better if you find having to interact with people a bit awkward. The attached coffee shop/bar/restaurant is great. I was quite unwell one night which was a nightmare in a shared room, probably equally if not moreso for the other people in the room but the Pilo staff were so helpful. I think my only real niggle is that whilst the bedding is perfectly serviceable and the beds comfy enough (and, fundamentally, you'd be a fool to expect luxury high thread count linen at these prices) it would be much nicer with relatively little outlay with some better pillows (also, it's in the name!)

Family's holiday

The Hostel is very comfortable Nice and modern with a lovely bar on the ground floor. The only negative point is the position,up on the hill,so it's not very easy to reach if you are coming with luggages or buggies and young kids. Overall is a good price for the expensive Lyon.

Ok hotel- lots of details to improve

The location of the hotel is very nice, sadly there are not many transport closeby and is very step (lots of stairs) to get to the hotel, to considered for elderly people or in disable situation. The hotel in general has a nice concept, the personal is very kind and is easy to get to the rooms. On improving points the cleaningness, I stayed for three nights but never cleaned the room, the breakfast is needing urgently more options and space, in rush hour is too crowded, not a lot of options, for the price seems a little expensive. The bed was comfortable but the bathroom was not so nice, the door was very difficult to access and the shower is very uncomfortable to bath in.

Great hotel on a hill

Hotel was clean and welcoming! Lots to do/eat on the ground floor. Room was a bit dark, but very comfortable. Hotel was close to everything, but located on a steep hill, so be prepared.

Good Hostel, Far From Train Station

Check-in was very easy. The room itself was a bit cramped with so many bed pods. It was quite difficult to make the bed yourself. The shower/bathroom was very clean and had multiple doors/locks for separation so many people could use it at once. It got very warm at night with so many bodies in the room. The restaurant was great, and with the keycard offered a 10% discount. My greatest complaint is that it is so far from the train station (about 1 hour walk) and sits on a steep hill. With buses on an odd schedule and the metro not close, it was difficult to reach.

I liked the cleaness but i didnt like a lot of slopes to get there, also towels are not provided, even homeless shelters provide free towels, why cant they do it? I dont like city taxes pay separately, should be included all, expédia, please do not separate city taxés, it just annoying to pay at premise.
