I stayed at Josephine's apartment for a week with my boyfriend. We were blown away by the apartment and its location. Josephine met us at the apartment and gave us tips on getting around and finding things. She speaks excellent English and was very prompt with communications.
The ground floor apartment is newly renovated and the furnishings are all high quality. It's much bigger than we anticipated and it really felt like a home away from home. It was very quiet and we only heard some doors opening & closing every now and again.
It was great to come back to the apartment after a big day sightseeing. The bed was a real bed (a queen size that can be split into 2 singles, but you'd never know it!) and it was incredibly comfortable (on the softer side). We slept very well!
There is a full sized kitchen (we didn't use it) and the leather couch is a fold-out bed. The shower is also great- its over a bathtub, but the water pressure and temperature was great. There is a grand pattiserie around the corner for all the food shopping you need.
The location is so central - a short walk (2 min) from the Saint Placide metro station. We also walked from the apartment to Notre Dame (approx 15 min) and Eiffel tower (approx 40 min).
There are some lovely restaurants, bakeries and shops nearby and we felt very safe and comfortable in the area.
I would definitely recommend Josephine and her apartment to anyone.
