Good location. I asked them not to clean my room and they did it anyway. They moved my papers around. I'm a writer and I had things organized. The shower head was turned (after cleaning) so it poured out on my head and the floor (the shower is very small). I told them ahead of time I must be gluten free and they had almost nothing gluten free and the gluten free food got mixed up with the normal food. They have no idea how to handle gluten free food as it must be clearly separated. i.e. they had the breads next to each other. They were reversed by the diners. When I said I was gluten free, they should have explained to me that they were unable to handle my needs. I would have gone elsewhere. The manager told me not to come into the dining room anymore for any reason. I was uncomfortable the entire time; they ruined my stay.

Response from Hotel Alexandra Manager on 22 Oct 2019
Dear Madam Sullivan, First of all we would like to thank you for having chosen the hotel Alexandra for your stay in Lyon. We read carefully your review about the negative aspects, and we are really sorry for it and also surprised ! We are aware that the rooms are not very large .... being an independent city hotel, we optimize the space as much as possible, your room for one person was spacious measuring exactly 17 m2- to clarify the situation we could have switch to another room upon your arrival, my colleague having suggested it to you. All our rooms are different, yours was under the roofs - but we also have rooms on the terrace quite or on street or courtyard. All our team as a manager were anxious about your requests as a free gluten breakfast or TV english chains and try to satisfy it. About a free gluten breakfast that we offered you for free, specially for you, our colleague prepared around 5 free glutens salty and sweet recipes : muffins, cakes, pies etc, but it seem to not satisfy you, because you preferred we separated 2 types of breakfast. We remember, free gluten bread was specially put directly on your table upon breakfast. We cleaned your room only on the days you requested it and indeed to clean the room we had to move a little bit your personal affairs but the house keepings had been instructed to touch nothing I had personally ordered them to follow. We only have English BBC and EURONEWS and non-American channels as in most French hotels except 5 stars there are only English channels. There must have been some misunderstanding because I always express myself courteously to my customers, it is thanks to them that we are present and I thank them warmly. My team is always benevolent and polite despite this very detailed situation mentioned. However, we thank you, Mrs Sullivan, for the stay in our hotel.

The Street outside the hotel is being rebuilt. Noisy and unappealing as a result of construction. Hotel is built over a garage. Almost was hit by a car coming out of garage. I would not recommend for the price.
