Hotel lacked an ironing board, a water kettle or anything to make coffee/tea, there was not even a bottle of water, which I expect from a 350 euros hotel. The room was too warm for my taste and I could not reduce the temp.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mama Shelter Lyon. The hotel was in a decent area, good cafes, bars and restaurants were pretty close, and we were able to walk to most places from the hotel. Buses, the metro and tram stop are close by too. The room was pleasant and quiet. Hotel staff were great.

All of the staff were very accommodating and fr...

The place is well decorated and bi...
