Liked: actually not bad for me (but not goot either :q) if I will come Paris again, I will stay here. At least it's worthy for the payment.

Disliked: internet, location (Remember!! it's behind the "Novotel." The station is super big, so it's so difficult to find :)), the stairs

Liked: It is small but it was tidy. The location is decent being a block from the metro, but you're not in the heart of the city. Still, it was worth the cost and didn't put me at any disadvantage while staying in Paris.

Disliked: The breakfast, lack of internet.

Liked: Location is good.

Disliked: Beds are dirty. And the room has just one key but we are 3 people so it was very difficult for us to open the door. And after 12 i couldnt find anybody to open hostel's door for me i have to ring bell and wait in that cold like 20 minutes.

Liked: well, nothing really. They didn't have fleas, I guess that counts for something. It's a bed and almost a hot shower. that's it really.

Disliked: No free wifi, (and the computers and pay internet supplied were so slow!) no free breakfast, the electrical plugs don't work (only 1 per room btw, for 4 people to try and charge all their electronics does NOT work) The beds were worn down and uncomfortable, the shower was cold and would turn off randomly, the pillows were small and uncomfortable... all in all this is an absolute bare minimum hostel. they provide no added value for what you're paying.

Liked: The hostel is near the metro and train station especially metro. Door of room is so security. The room has just painted and smelt so heavy. Breakfast was so poor. Staff was friendly and helpful. We stayed only one night because the hostel is a bit expensive but i suppose that i can recommend.

Disliked: Breakfast, price

Liked: There is nothing to like about it!!!!

Disliked: Everything! Unfriendly employees would not give me a refund on my money for using the internet even though it didn't work. Two workers refused to give me refund and were not friendly in the process. The hostel is disgustingly dirty. It is closed in the afternoon for cleaning which I have a hard time believing was done. There was hair and stains on my mattress sheet. Floors were dirty and I was afraid of touching the floor with my bare feet. Terrible place to sleep, rooms small, lots of noise.

Liked: I didnt get eaten by bed bugs.

Disliked: the computers were shit and old. the people were unhelpful and only one guy spoke ANY english. there was only one key which they dont tell you. you have to pay extra for EVERYTHING. Breaky is included but finishes at 9 (sorry but if your up by 9 your not a real backpacker). there is no where to meet anyone. bad atmosphere. the directions arent really directions so if you dont know where it is then it takes for ever to find. theres more too....
