The staff was nice but the facilities could have been cleaner. The toilets were not cleaned while I was there and it did not smell good in the bathrooms. The rooms are all kind of stuffy which i think is the nature of getting the single private cabin but it was very warm in my room but a lot cooler in the hall. There were new people in the neighboring rooms and they smelled terrible (bad BO) which made the entire hall smell terrible because of the lack of ventilation. The only way to fix this was to open the door to the main hall which overall made it a less safe and enjoyable stay

The atmosphere of the hostel is nice. Close to RER B metro that goes to the city, as well as not too bad of a walk to M14 for ORLY airport.

Staff service was fine, no one was rude or overly polite either. They didn't really tell me much other than how to get to my room, but they are there to answer questions.

The bartender was friendlier, drinks were good, and food from the kitchen was actually decent too!

There seems to be a lot of non-guests coming around for social drinks/food and using their meeting rooms. This isn't a bad thing, but more of an fyi, it can get crowded and lively with locals especially in the patio area.

I liked that the bed had its own blinds so you can get some privacy. And you can open the window in the room so it doesn't get stuffy or too stinky.

Shower pressure was good, but the drain is slow. I wouldn't say the room felt super clean, but it wasn't the worst or anything.

Another thing to note, you gotta plug in your room card by the door to keep the lights in the bathrooms/showers on.

The rooftop is small, but got a nice view. Also got laundry and little kitchen to use.

Luggage storage was about €5/bag.

Highly recommended. Great staff and facility. Location is in Gentilly, a fair distance from the center of action but it is very close to the metro station. Food outlets nearby. I had a \"cabin\" which I consider unique. It's a small enclosure so you have a tiny but private room. The bathroom is shared. I liked the facility and the cabin a lot and would stay here again.

This was surprisingly one of
The best places I’ve stayed. I stayed in the double private room with the private terrace and it was awesome. The room was extremely clean and the terrace was huge had a really nice view of the Eiffel Tower, amd has a large day bed on it. The staff is very nice and helpful, there’s a great party vibe at night but if you’re not into that, you can retreat to your room and not hear any noise at all. The metro is a 3
Minute walk From the hotel and takes you very easily to the main attractions. Breakfast is continental and has a lot of options. My only complaint is that the bed was extremely, extremely hard which is a pretty important part of your stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again as long as I called before and

I’m not usually much for a hostel stay kind of person, but I didn’t want to pay $200 for one night stay in Paris before my flight, so I decided to try out this hostel. The photos looked cool,
so I went for it.
The place itself is very modern and stylish. I appreciated having a cabin room all to myself, having no windows makes it very dark and claustrophobic, but for one night stay it’s good enough. It can get noisy at times, but nothing unbearable. The shareable bathrooms/shower facilities are nice and clean. Best part was that it’s located 3 minute walk from the metro. I was taking the
train yo to Charles De Gaulle airport and it was super fast and easy.
Overall, great stay for a low price in Paris.

Really enjoyable solo travel experience

I stayed in a cabin which was ideal for a solo traveler although it is a bit of a hit or miss whether you get roommates who are like you (quiet or party etc) as with any hostel. I liked the cabin concept and the staff were very friendly. Despite the events going on down at the bar you couldn’t hear them upstairs. My only suggestion would be for the hostel to add a vending machine by reception for late night snacks and water.

My husband and I stayed for one night and were very disappointed in our stay. Upon arrival, we requested (and paid) for a late check out. We got to our room to find that it wasn’t clean and there were no towels anywhere. The room smelled strongly of urine. It was, frankly, disgusting. The front desk did help us with clean towels, but that was it.

The next day our key cards abruptly stopped working. Come to find out, no one put our late checkout on our room. My husband had to stop and spending 45 mins getting new keycards.

Finally, we were informed upon departure that our room would normally be about 45 euros per night. We paid over $100 usd. No one could (or would) explain the discrepancy in price. All and all, we were very disappointed in our experience and wouldn’t recommend or stay here again.

I was supposed to say about 6 nights but ending up staying none. When I arrived the staff were very nice but once I got up to my private room it was a sauna with no running air. I got a private room but had to use communal showers that were very dirty. Every toilet stall had no toilet paper, the floor and the seats of the toilet were filthy. It’s a long walk to get to the hostel from the metro with nothing to look at. It’s in a more residential area so you have to walk a good distance to get to the more major stores.

I stayed in the Cabin one night and couldn't stay there any longer. It wasn't clear how it worked. I thought it was your own room, but it isn't at all. It's like being in a dormitory, only worse because there's no room to move around. There's also no privacy whatsoever as there's no sound barrier. I heard the guy in the cabin next to me talk on the phone for five or six hours (to 2 am in the night) to some girl. I used ear plugs, but that wasn't enough. There is also no anything about any return of funds. People were friendly and I think it would be a fine place. I just expected a private room with the cabin, but it isn't anything close to a private room.

Good for quick stays

I opted for the 'cabin' style room with a queen bed. I would strongly recommend packing your own towel and a pillow. While the bed itself was comfy, the pillow offered very little support or comfort, I ended up placing some folded clothing underneath it so I wouldn't have a sore neck.
There also wasn't any temperature control so I ended up being quite hot.

the card key problem....

Basically it is very nice.
If you pay 5 euros, they can keep your luggage in the safety box and you can relax in the restaurant area or in the garden even before check-in time.

But the problem can be the card key.
We can use it for the electricity of the room.
You insert this card and your room will gain the power.

But imagine, if you stay with other strangers in the dormitory room, each schedule is different.
So while you take shower, the one who has inserted his card left the room (of course, with his card, without it, he cannot enter the room), all of the light just goes off. You are left alone in the black shower room.

I think that it might be for the environment, but it is too useless.........other than that this hostel seems perfect, so it's pity....!

Staffs are friendly they are trying to help me anytime the location is bit far away from the center which has many museums but it’s okay coz the RER line station is just 2minutes away. Amenity looks bit short They provided me sheet, blanket and pillow. So I highly recommend you to bring all you need to use in hostel. e.i. Body gel, shampoo, padlock(a locker’s default is open in there. You need to lock this yourself, if you want), towel, tooth brush&paste etc. But you can still buy these all at the reception, don’t worry. Dormitory beds have a curtain. Inside of it, it has light, power socket(usb,plug) and small net pocket. The hostel is pretty good in sanitary but in weekends it’s not. I recommend you this hostel It’s worth it

Great Hostel and Low Budget Hotel

This is a very affordable hostel on the outskirts of Paris. Secure on-site parking and easy access to the subway system. This is geared towards the young and single crowd, but our family felt welcome. Don't expect too much in the way of service, it's simply a clean and simple place to sleep. Also has a bar in the evening and breakfast in the morning.

We had a hard time finding a place for the 5 of us in Paris given the time that we were coming (Women's World Cup games), so we gambled on this hostel. We enjoyed our time and it was very different from places that we normally stay as a family (parents, kids 8, 11, 14). It had nice space for each bed (we had a private room for 5 with an individual bed for each person, locker/cabinet space, and a toilet/shower space) and would be great as a student or younger person traveling alone or on a budget-I'd recommend requesting bed 1, if I were an individual traveler as I think it had the most space. Cool vibe and fun environment; aimed at 20 something trendy crowd. Not sure if we would stay again as a family with children, but would recommend to younger, single friends looking for a good hostel recommendation-was clean and staff was very friendly.

New, clean room but lack of some basic amenities

The hostel is new so it's very clean and has a youthful energy. However, I expected more for the price I paid.
First of all, the check-in time is 15h but have to wait for 1 more hour to get to our room. They said due to some problems but didn't explain and tell us when we could have the room. We had to ask several times about it and were really tired because we couldn't just go and come back without clear information. They didn't show any effort to help either (checking out on the guest to see how they're doing or offer a drink could be nice).
Secondly, the room has nothing but a bed and a bathroom, no shelf, no chair, no table, not even a hook to hang our coat. We booked a private double room, and even with the very basic needs, a sole bed is not enough for a room. The room was very spacious with some weird, empty corner which can be easily filled with a shelf, but no, nothing. We had to lay our stuff on the floors and around the bed.

The good parts are the room is soundproof (quiet), the shower is good, but the sink is terribly small (even washing hands can make the water splash to the floor), the location is close to centre (but be careful with the RER system, the T+ ticket cannot be used in zone 2, you should use the Mobilis ticket, much more convenient)

The bed was also not the most comfortable
