(review written by my husband)
We stayed at Joshua et Jaquess apartment mid-September. The apartment is right in the middle of the Latin Quarter which is close to EVERYTHING Paris. Restaurants abound from fancy French to Italian to Indian to Greek! The best take away crepes were literally around the corner from the flat!
The automated keyless entry system was a plus in not having to synch-up with anyone to let us in! Also, not having to worry about keys is a nice convenience.
The apartment was very clean with a spacious kitchen/living room. We chose the apartment in part due to the two separate bathrooms since my wife and I were traveling with my sister-law and needed additional privacy.
A few cons:
1) The apartment sits near a pub that plays continuous DJ-directed music from around 9:00 PM till 2:00AM. It seems that Saturday night was the loudest (the night we moved in) and the rest of the week not as bad. I think Monday the pub barely played any music. The noise is something to consider but in reality, it wasn't so bad when considering how great the location is.
3) The bedrooms are quite small with just enough room for the double beds (which by the way, were extremely comfortable). I had to turn sideways to get to "my side" of the bed.
2) The apartment was a bit shopworn in places with some peeling paint and a light or two not working. My wife complained that the master bath had a “musty” smell, maybe due to no fan being in that bathroom…
**The owners told us they plan to do a renovation during the winter which should help with some of the cosmetic issues.
We had a great time being right in the midst of things in Paris. If that is something that appeals to you than consider this Air b & B.
