Liked: Breakfast surprised us the most. They were really tasty. Before the trip we had heard that we wouldn't get good breakfast in Paris, but you totally broke this myth. We loved the hostel and we'll recommend it to all of our friends, indeed.

Disliked: We had too less time to see minuses of this hostel.

07 May 2011

Liked: the location, breakfast was okay

Disliked: 1) I saw a COCKROACH in the bathroom 2) the elevator gets stuck and people ring the damn bell in the morning. also lockout code as well, people were ringing the bell for hours and banging on the door to get in 3) we did not have a window. my roommate had asthma and we asked to change the room but she seemed annoyed and never got it changed.

07 May 2011

Liked: The staff was nice, the brakfast is ok, but the room I stayed in, was dirty, with just one dirty blanket, under the beds one could see dust, the bathroom is vey small, but the issue with the bathroom is that the shower is not powerful, I mean one takes ages taking a shower, because is not enough water, and by the way for those who just take a hot shower.. forget about it in this Hostel because there is NOT hot water.

Disliked: rooms, shower, beds.

03 May 2011 Lennard would recommend this property

Liked: The staff speaks English and was very very helpfull and friendly. The showers were good and warm and the location was super. The Wifi access and internet was fast and available (sometimes we had to wait a few minutes).

Disliked: The rooms were cozy, sometimes a little bit to cozy (small) and a bit noisy (which obviously depends on your neighbours).

Disliked: none

02 May 2011

Liked: NOTHING!!! JUST NOTHING. It's hostel accommodation certificate should be cancelled. The hostel is a worst hostel in my entire 10 years of hostel staying experience.

Disliked: Just say anything about this hostel I can say that I didn't like that!! It is true fact.

30 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: nice and clean enough, good location, no complaints with noise nor atmosphere

Disliked: the guy at the desk was fairly rude and unhelpful, and the shower was a bit weak.

28 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: I definitely enjoyed my stay here -- the room was nice and clean, breakfast was included, free internet access via WiFi or six desktops was provided, and the place was a block or two away from the Lamarck Caulaincourt metro stop. I would absolutely stay there again in future trips to Paris!

Disliked: The staff were not especially welcoming but nice enough in my interactions with them. I did notice two of the four I saw working during my stay acting a bit rude toward customers whose first language wasn't English or French, but that was about the most negative aspect of my stay.

27 April 2011

Liked: It was near the Metro.

Disliked: Staff was rude and un-helpful! I needed help with catching a flight and directions as to the cheapest route to the airport and the guy working the desk said theirs a computer look it up! No kitchen, and common room is the front lobby. Rooms were spacious but they were never clean... isnt that what the lockout is for?

26 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It's quite value for money and so convenient to get there by metro. Besides it's nearly to go to famous sightseeing in Lanmark area.

Disliked: They don't have security cabinet for our belongings. The security depends on tourist honest. There is risk existing. Don't feel security, be honest, eventually like what they said, everything will be ok, don't worry, I did not lose anything.

26 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Room was relatively clean, apart from the blanket which had many specks of black dirt and hairs.

Disliked: Front desk person was unfriendly, and unprofessional, and rude. Shower space was really small; had many bruises from showering! Bed was firm but the frame was creaky.

25 April 2011 Anca would recommend this property

Liked: Location, breakfast, staff

Disliked: not a quiet hostel, but the right place to meet people all around the world

24 April 2011 Alejandra would recommend this property

Liked: PERFECT LOCATION in Montmartre!!!! It was a shame my friend and I had to switch hostels due to it been fulled booked. It's a great area. Also, good breakfast with croissant, bread, cereals, coffee, milk and juice. May not be all carbs but hey! for being "hostel breakfast" it was quite good!

Disliked: Toilets outside the rooms, but it is comprehensible, due to being quite a large, old property

24 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: I like the friendliness of people (most students I think) met there, also the atmosphere is great, feel very warm and welcome. The hostel itself is also generally clean for my experience of stay.

Disliked: I stayed there for 3 nights and the only bad experience I have had is no shower. I lived on the ground floor and when I wanted to take showers at night the flow of hotwater is limited / intermittent. On one night I even had a cold shower as no hot water was coming out from the shower tap at all!

22 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The breakfast was decent and everything was pretty clean

Disliked: The showers weren't great and it was a bit noisy at night.

22 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: the location is idea, really close to the metro and the Sacre-Coeur, a lot of nice bars/dinner places in the neighborhood. Although it is located in a main road, it is not loud at all at night, and had no problems whatsoever with partying-neighbours. Would definately suggest it to people visiting Paris

Disliked: No bad remarks!

21 April 2011 Katri would recommend this property

Liked: very good location in montmartre, pretty area, beautiful building close to many restaurants and bars, very good breakfast. a quiet hostel although there were lots of people staying there, had no problem sleeping.

Disliked: staff did not appear to be people you'd like to ask questions from - in a "pay your bill and leave us alone" kind of way. i didn't get a map of the city although you usually get one at hostels everywhere in europe - at least in my experience (i didn't ask for one cos i happened to have one). female 6 person dorm had a tiny bathroom, which has no plug point.

21 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Good location (good transport links, lots of restaurants, safe, nice atmosphere, close to butte de Montmartre), decent breakfast (nothing exciting but still, considering this is a hostel and everything)

Disliked: It would be great with some lockers, even if I didn't experience any problems. Not much of space for socialising.

19 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: very nice stay. small room but i was expecting and it wasn't a problem. a little bit noisy but no more than at any other hostel i've been. the breakfast included is awesome. i loved it. the hostel is very well located. next to the subway. they have computers with internet at the common room that we could use for free. free wi fi as well if you have your own computer. it's a nice hostel to stay for young people who wants to visit the city.

Disliked: the staff at the check in and check out weren't very friendly.
