Rooftop bar is incredible, everything else just OK

The rooftop cafe/bar is amazing. Everything else was, at best, satisfactory or average. My main complaint was that there's VERY little space in the dorm rooms - it felt very cramped. I know, it's PARIS and if you want space you're gonna pay big money for it. But given that there are lower-priced hostels in the city, I guess I was expecting a bit higher level of amenity here. The shower/bathroom facilities are nice and modern, but weren't very clean and there was water all over the bathroom floor from the showers. Still - the location of the hostel worked for me, given that I just needed a place near Gare de Lyon after a late evening train arrival. I was looking for a bed for one night and a place to shower before catching a flight home from Paris the next morning - so I suppose to that end my basic needs were met. Don't know that I'd book here again, though.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The restrooms were rather dirty and smaller. The showers were also small.The bunk bed room was ...small. To put it in a nutshell too much promiscuity and lack of maintenance. Lack of cleanliness too, oh one receptionist boy liked to be flirtatious with some female guests instead of dealing with bookings rapidly.

Hostel excelente

A estrutura do hostel é ótima! Fiquei em um quarto compartilhado com mulheres e foi ótimo! Único ponto ruim, o hostel é afastado das principais atrações turísticas, sendo necessário ir de metrô.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Comfy beds but steps to upper bunk are very loud and creaky, rooms are very cramped. Washrooms felt very dirty because water would collect on the floor and not dry up, causing a smell since there was no ventilation. No common area as well. Rooftop area is very popular with those at the hostel and locals alike therefore busy, so sometimes there was no seating. Location is great, lots around but not too busy and metro is right across.

Foi decepcionante, porque contratei um quarto de camas 4 homens, e todas as noites um homem levava uma mulher para dormir ou seja, ficou 5 pessoas, fiquei inseguro, pois a mulher era barulhenta, bagunçada deixava suas coisas jogadas..reclamei 3 vezes na recepção e nada fizeram. Meu quarto era o 204.

Atendeu as minhas necessidades

A localização do Hostel é realmente muito boa, fica em frente a uma estação de metro, perto de ponto de ônibus, ao lado de uma boulangerie, mercado e restaurantes com preços acessíveis, mas fica um pouco longe dos pontos turísticos, pelo menos 20 minutos, o que é normal pra Paris, então não foi um problema, mas achei o quarto muito barulhento, fiquei na cama de cima e a escada fazia MUITO barulho, os banheiros ficam no corredor e apesar de serem bons, estavam sempre muito molhados, acredito que seja mais por conta dos hospedes do que do hostel, o que eu achei bom era o espaço com banco para apoiar as coisas dentro do ambiente de banho Além disso a vista do ultimo andar era INCRIVEL, dava pra ver Paris inteira, desde a Torre até a Sacre Coeur, valeu a pena.

One of my favourite hostels in Paris. Have stayed here number of times and never disappoints. Location, room and roof top are the highlights. I like how it's close to the station, supermarket next door and plenty of eateries near by.

Really conveniently located, well connected to key areas of Paris and some great food options nearby. Staff were really helpful and the quality of accomodation was great. Beds were comfy and facilities were clean and well maintained. Despite being on a busy roundabout, it was quiet inside. Would definitely stay here again.

Pour une courte escale s’il n’y a pas d’autres cho

Ca reste un rapport qualité prix assez correpour qui prend possesion de sa couche à 22h et fait son check out aux aurores. On est très très en deça des standard du The People du marais qui , bien que très perfectible, est un palace à coté de de celui de Nation. Bon, c’est bien simple, TOUT est à refaire, à revoir, à retaper, à moderniser. Mais ça peut dépanner en dernière minute pour qui fait une courte escale sur Paris.
