Apportez un ventilateur pour les jours de forte chaleur, car l'hôtel n'est pas climatisé (la raison est acceptable) et le ventilateur fourni n'a pas un fil assez long et ne suffit pas pour une famille de quatre personnes.

I stayed in a six pod room. It was very cramped and frankly not very confortable. No AC anywhere in the building only a window that opens to the average parisian noisy traffic and people shouting even late at night.
Shared bathroom with showers that you have to press every 30 seconds to **save water** ... rest of the property is the same.
Would not advice coming here anytime in the summer if you have to come here when the heat dies down otherwise stay very far away.

We are Americans who stayed there during the Paris heat wave of temperatures over 100. There is no air conditioning and I realize that most of Paris doesn’t have air conditioning, but I was disappointed that there was no plan. Our room had one window that barely opened and we were given one floor fan. The hotel should have a better plan for high temperatures. Like give us multiple floor fans or something. It ended up being hotter in the room than outside. There was no shelf in the shower. Where are we supposed to set our soap and shampoo? A small refrigerator in the room would have gone a long way. If the temperatures weren’t so high, it would have been a whole different situation. It’s a great location.

The room was very clean and there was enough space for a family of four. The bunk beds were great. Nonetheless, this wasn't quite what I was expecting given the price. It was more like a dorm room than a hotel room, and much of the hotel is actually for backpackers accommodations. The window mechanism was broken, so we couldn't open the window, and there was almost no water pressure in the bathroom sink. The shower is on some sort of water-conserving setting so it automatically turns off every 30 seconds. I just didn't care for it. The TV had no channels that we could access. Positives: easy walking distance to a metro station and to Gare de Lyon. Close to Bastille area. Restaurants nearby. There is a restaurant and bar in the hotel, which we only used to get an evening drink. The staff were friendly and helpful at the bar. Overall, this hotel just wasn't really for us, but it is nonetheless a nice place and convenient.

They do not have daily cleaning for rooms and they clean when there is no guest in the room. So you may get checked in a dirty room. Soap container is empty
No body wash and shampoo is available. You have to but your own towel. For luggage drop off you have to pay….

Super Hot in the dorm rooms … one guy was snoring like he was gona die … couldn’t sleep because of the heat & the snoring … the breakfast wasn’t very not very good with not much selections … mostly only breads … the server behind the counter was very unfriendly & acted like I was bothering him when asked if there was anymore food because they didn’t replace anything … when I could see fresh trays of food sitting behind him … there was 2 crusty pieces of quiche … left & it wasn’t very edible looking … I asked if they where going to refill the quiche & he said no … then as I was about to leave … after having a coffee & croisant … he put out the new quiche & some other fresh foods … it was not a good experience at all

Location was excellent. Check in was easy. The room was basic and without a safe though there was a lockable box in the room, you need your own lock.
The bed was firm to the point of being hard and the pillows were too small and gave zero support.
The tv had no built in channels that we could see, the only access was via streaming from your own device, an app is available to aid this.
If you are looking for reasonably priced well located accommodation this does the job.

The worst hostel I have ever stayed in. The shared bathrooms were filthy - insects and hair - and it is almost impossible to clean properly as the water is so tightly regulated that only continued button pressing during a shower will allow you to clean properly. One night I am pretty sure I saw someone sleeping in the common room. The rooms themselves are so poorly designed from an air circulation perspective that the windows have to be open all night. The cubbies in the rooms are too small for even the smallest of carry on bags. And one has to pay extra for everything, from secure storage before you check in to the locks used in the rooms to the sad towels. All told, a hostel doing the absolute minimum. Avoid unless you are one of the many nineteen year olds running around each floor living your dorm room dreams.

it was great. Lovely hostesses and the room was perfect. My only issue was that we had to pay extra for the room key which is a bit ridiculous, and the showers. You need to press a button for them to work and they last 5 seconds. Exactly 5 seconds. Which means washing your hair is almost impossible. If you allow the water to work for 4 minutes (it's what most people think it's the right amount of time to spend in the shower in order not to waste water) it'd make life much easier. As it is, it's a total pain.

Check in was terrible as there was no one at reception for 15 minutes, then gave me a BS excuse. The window could not close shut because the curtains were stuck behind them, so we could hear the outside noise until 5am. The lights in the hallway should be dimmed after 11 pm so people remain quiet. Bring your own air plugs and towels as they are not provided or offered. The buffer breakfast was in the entry hall and not as advertised based on the pictures.

This is a hostel, so you get what you pay for. With that said, the staff was friendly, the facility was clean and kept. You will need to bring your own towel or rent one for 4e. Additionally, if you have luggage, you will need to either leave it unsecured in your room or rent a locker in the basement for 9e per 24 hours. This is very inconvenient. Breakfast is bread, croissants, juice, yogurt and coffee. The location is good on the end of the Marais near the Seine and steps to Metro 7. I would stay again if on a budget.

They don’t take luggages before and after checkin and checkout, which really interrupt itinerary flexibility.

Customer service was great.
We are over 60' and visited a number of countries in Europe. We booked 5 nights via Expedia and only discovered that the property was in fact a hostel, contrary to our understanding of the booking. After raising our concerns with Mr. Ethan Clard, he promptly cancelled our 5-night reservation and assisted us in rebooking for 2-nights in a private room with a queen bed and ensuite bathroom as they had no availability for the other nights.
More than €1,000 was refudned to Expedia on the spot (11/10/2025), but Expedia refused to refund the money to us. It is now 20 days over and they still refused to refund our hard earned money.
Expedia’s behaviour also contrary to their own Terms and Conditions: “Any refunds will be transferred back to the payment method used to make the original booking. Such refunds will be made by the party that took your original payment…\".
Make your booking somewhere else, NOT EXPEDIA. They are unethical and money hungry and would do anything to make your life in hell!

Overall, the room was not bad. Very clean and was comfortable enough for four people. The shower water saver was limited to a 15 second intervals. Instead of having an on and off style faucet it had push knob that would pop out every 15 seconds. Therefore, you need to keep pushing the knob to keep the water running. Towels, toilet paper and soap was limited. TV did not work on either of the rooms. I had. You are not allowed to eat in the room. A room for four people only had enough coffee for one. There wasn’t a store nearby that I could get coffee on my own. There were no cups in the room. Just two little ones for the Nespresso machine. If you like American coffee, the only place to get coffee was in the second floor café. Even though we had a private room with shower, this is a hostel hotel. The problem was with the description in Expedia was not good. We reviewed the description several times but nowhere in Expedia or other websites did it state the condition of the stay. If you’re accustomed to standard hotels with full sets of towels, working TV, blower, normal showers do not go to this hotel. Some of the hostesses were very good and some were very bad. They were not diligent about resolving any issues. If I would’ve known what I was getting into, I would’ve paid the additional hundred dollars a day to stay at a regular hotel or an Airbnb.
