I didn't like to stay there. It's poor, terrible staff (they are so rude, and they don't helpif you need an information or anything), and the breakfast it's not good. The location is fine, but you can find a better place to stay and a better location. I wouldn't go back there.

Only positive thing about this place is its location. Rooms look like budget hotels in Asia. There are no powerplace in the room, so all the guest have to charge their phones in the lobby. And there is not enough places chairwise or behind the table for everyone. there is no kitchen. They have micro but no dishes at all.... More

For sightseeing and soaking in the city of Paris, accommodation shouldn't be too much of a priority. If you're on a budget, this place is good value for money. The hostel is very clean, and so was our room. No great views from the room, but it wasn't really important. The bathroom was small, but not uncomfortable. The place has... More

Close to metro, breakfast included (even if it is only a baguette). Its typically a basic Parisian hostel, but the staff are helpful and friendly and the rooms are suitable. They could be a little more flexible with their cleaning hours (the room closed from 11am -3pm) but otherwise ok. I would recommend it if you were in Paris for... More

As my first stay in a hostel I was worried! Came for a three night break with my friend to explore Paris. Very basic but clean. We where supposed to be sharing our first night and the other two private but upon arrival they just gave us private all nights :) There is one plug in the room high up... More

1. A girl, travelling by herself, got sexually harassed by one of the staff. Before speaking to the manager a day later, every other staff member suggested she should "go talk to the guy." The guy who sexually harassed her said she didn't need to talk to the manager. 2. It is your typical, not so nice youth hostel. But... More

Well located, clean and staff is nice. Close to boulangeries, metro station and mini-market, 10 min away from Bastille Square. I would definetly stay there again. They close from 10 am to 3 pm, IMO it was not a negative aspect of the hotel, afterall you don`t go to Paris to stay inside the hostel, however it`s good to know... More

I will try to be brief and objective, I say this because I was very upset with the whole experience: the 'look and feel' of the hostel is very gloomy and depressing, the staff is unfriendly and unhelpful, internet only works in the reception area and no WiFi in your room, and that too between 1230 to 2330, the times...
