This place was wonderful, and felt very homey. Rose was also a really great worker who as a fellow American made me feel at home! Free crepe night was a great addition too!

Really enjoyed this stay! I stayed in the 6 people room with a private bathroom and balcony. Meeting travelers and sharing our itineraries made the trip so much more fun. The room had a lot of bugs which was a down fall and we didn’t have Wi-Fi for the first couple of days. Got Wi-Fi the last 2 nights of my stay. The workers were really nice and accommodating. The hostel bar closes at a certain time and after that only people staying in the hostel are allowed in and the security at the front door makes sure of it. I felt safe and would recommend to solo travelers. Also perfect place to stay if you want to hop on the train or bus and go around Paris. Not too close to all the main attractions which was very nice. Coming back from a long day and seeing people relaxing on the canal or joining people on the canal was great!

Overall a good hostel to stay at. The elevator was out so it was a hassle to carry luggage up many flights of stairs. Area feels much less like a tourist area which is nice, but not as much dining around. The room and bathrooms were fairly clean. Restaurant in the hostel was also very good and you get a discount which is nice.

I was a single female staying here in a mixed dorm and I felt very safe. The hostel has a security guard and every floor is key locked as well as your room. I couldn’t hear noise from the other rooms and I was very impressed with how clean the hostel was kept. The neighbourhood homes a lot of families and is full of bars, bakeries, restaurants and ice cream. You only need to take 1 metro line to get to the main attractions and the distance means that everything in the neighbourhood is cheeper than you would find closer to the city center

Kudos to reception & security staff!!! They’re amazing individuals!! They continue to offer great customer service regardless of the difficulties they face! I observed some extremely difficult guests and the staff dealt with the situation so calmly it was impressive!! They truly want to assist guests and ensure you have a fabulous time as a guest. I did enjoy my stay and was impressed by the cleaning & maintenance staff! They’re efficient and pay attention to detail. There are many hotels who do not clean as often as this cleaning staff! There were “chill spots” and activities on a regular basis if one were so inclined to participate. This was a great stay and I look forward to the next!

You cannot control temperatures in the showers. I had to wash my hair in a utility sink because the shower was so hot I could not stand in it. The staff were VERY rude. One day I was allowed to buy coffee, the next day, it was forbidden. There was a security guard monitoring the kitchen entrance. The lockers in the rooms were so small. I t says that they have free cancellation, which is untrue unless you're willing to change rooms. I got what I paid for - I would not recommend it to anyone. You can take transit, but the neighbourhood at night is so scetchy, that you need to take a taxi, which the front desk wouldn't call for me.

It's an affordable place to stay but unfortunately, we didn't meet any fun or chatty people which is annoying because I've stayed in many party hostels before. Everyone is very sociable but the people in our room weren't which makes me wonder why they are staying in a hostel if you are antisocial like go away and stay in a private room dear but apart from that when the staff take the deposit from you on the card for the keys they give it back to you as cash which is silly because I didn't want cash id rather you put it back on the card you took it off.

The location is a bit far from the centre of Paris but busses and metro are close so its still convenient. But for the price overall a good stay.

Wouldn't stay again
Stayed in a private room with a sink and a small table in it. Bed and pillows were a bit uncomfortable. Location is near gare du Nord hence why I booked the hostel so was passable for a couple of nights but next time I'd stay somewhere more comfortable.
