We loved our stay at Joseph's modern and clean apartment. It was exactly as described and pictured with the bonus of having a gorgeous large balcony to step onto to enjoy some fresh air and a view of a beautiful French arch down the street! Its the perfect mix of classic French and contemporary design. We have young three year old twins and having a full kitchen and laundry in the apartment was extremely helpful. Joseph happened to be there when we arrived and was gracious in helping bring up our luggage, strollers and also stated to answer a few questions. The apartment is quite spacious by Paris standards... even by American city living standards I'd say. Anybody worried about the prostitute situation need not be... we saw a few but they are not ostentatious or overtly inappropriate. I'd highly recommend this apartment. We even got to check in early right at 1!
