Good: It's no hotel quality stay but it's got the bare minimum and if you're the type of travel that just needs a place to put your bags and to have a sleep and shower than this is the best place for the price. The main attraction is within walking distance, the metro is a few meters away. You get... More

This place was extremely affordable. It had a great location as well. It was a little run down and was a little shady, but my friend and I got our own private room for just $10-15 a night. The security was good and the staff was very professional. It is a perfectly fine place for young people backpacking through Europe... More

I have read a lot of negative references before booking, but I needed a cheap place, so I risked it. It was not that bed. Rooms are very very simple (there is nothing else than beds), same as bathrooms (we had a private bathroom, just shower, no toilet), but clean. Water in the shower was always hot. The blankets we...

incredible good deal for Paris in march, the best I ever had, and a fellow in my romm paid even 13 euros!. This makes this hostel the best value for money in Town ((50 per cent cheaper than my regular hostels), so I will be back. Professional staff; 3 per room instead of 6; ideal location, RER B from CDG... More

1--No WIFI 2--Only 1 electricity plug for a room with 3 beds so we had to take turns in charging our phones and cameras. 3--the plug is 15 cm under the ceiling, so we had to remove the false ceiling to put our phones 4--the breakfast: ( you remember your childhood) they give you 3 coins and you exchange them...

hostel place is not very bad, but its not a good place to stay. there isn't enough baths and toilets, the service and cleanness is poor. There is no kitchen for the guests to use. it doesn't worth the money that you pay for, I recommend other places in Paris!

My husband and I have been traveling for nearly 4 months now, have been to over 30 countries and 100 cities and this is by far the WORST hostel we have stayed in. First off - just because Paris is the city of love doesn't mean you can leave the "love" stains on the sheets! No free Wifi, one toilet/... More

What the website says about lockers, wifi, towels, is a total lie. Even if you can get over being kicked out of the rooms you pay for during 4 hours of the day, and the moldy bathroom walls, there is lots more you will have to live with: a) There is no kitchen for the guests to use.

Having read the horror stories below I was pretty worried I was in for a real shocker. To be completely honest, the bed was clean enough and the showers and toilets worked. But here's the thing: if you can get another Paris hostel, even if it's another 10euros a night then do it. Find somewhere that is not damp, has... More

Honestly! I read these reviews and thought, "oh they're just being fussy, I don't need much, it'll be fine" I'm honestly not a fussy backpacker, I need a clean room and I'm fine....big mistake. My experience wasn't as bad as some but the rooms are tiny, the bathroom door didn't close, the shower door kept falling off the rollers, the... More
