About

JO&JOE is a house open for all, a cool and caring social hub! For people travelling alone, in pairs or in group, we offer an ideal and appropriately priced shared or private accommodation in Paris - Gentilly. As well as serving the best burgers in town and awesome cocktails, we also have a self-serving beer tap system! Located right in front of the biggest Parisian campus, the JO&JOE Paris-Gentilly is ideally located with the B line RER train that will take you directly to the center of Paris in 20 minutes.

At JO&JOE people either come from the other side of the world or just live one block away. They gather to enjoy a fresh, simple and homemade cuisine as well as refreshing drinks and the 450 square meters garden. The stage welcomes artists every week and our events program brings travelers and locals together.

The Happy House is part of the experience at JO&JOE Paris - Gentilly: wich is a social space for inhouse guests only. You will find everything you need to heat up a snack or chill with your new friends.

Located between the Porte d'Orleans and the Porte de Gentilly, a 5-minutes walk from the Cite Internationale Universitaire of Paris and 10-minutes from the Charlety Stadium. JO&JOE is located next to the RER B line which is directly connected to the center of Paris (20 minutes) and to Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle Airport (45 minutes). Orly Airport is only (35 minutes). The Tramway T3a is very close and will get you to the Paris Convention Center and Paris Expo Porte de Versailles where lots of events and congress take place every year (cars, design, fashion, farming, tatoo...).

A selection of travel products are available at the front desk: power adaptor, iron, towels, shower gel, hair dryer...

My biggest complaint is the kitchen. Let’s not advertise a functioning kitchen and fail to mention that you have removed the stove top. I arrive groceries in hand with no way to cook them. Beyond frustrating. I paid for a private dorm that should be labeled as a hole in the wall, with a person on above me in another hole in the wall. I had to crawl into the area and had no space to go through my bags. Banged my head daily. Staff was kind and very helpful and I’m thankful for only that.

The room was fine, expect for the things being dirty (hairs in the bed, spots on the cover and dirty matress). And so noisy, you could hear everything from the next room even if the person was just laying in bed, putting the plug in. The atmosphere was not great, no events and nobody talked to each other. And black mold in the bathrooms everywhere. It was fine but wouldn’t go back

The rooms themselves are quite spacious, easy access to gentilly station and good common areas. Management though was slack and disappointing, room wasn’t cleaned in the 5 nights I was here and had to ask multiple times for our bins to be changed, the kitchen wasn’t very clean either. I had 40 euro worth of food stolen from the communal fridge and despite having cameras they can’t access them due to French laws and weren’t willing to do anything to compensate or help. No ventilation in the room
