Personal comments
in general i can say that we had a good housing atmosphere. you get easily into contact with other foreigners and you feel never alone. we had a piano room (for parties!!), a table-tennis-table and a babyfoot-table for our leisure time and the personnel was very very nice with us!

Final comments
there's a lot of discounts for almost everything for students in lyon. lyonnais people are very very helpful and open-minded! you'll always find help when you need some. for travelling i'd recommend to visit montpellier - it's a really beautiful and cute student-town. take the TGV for travelling - when you're under 25 you'll get a lot of discounts.
