Reviews of Caulaincourt Square Hostel

19 April 2011 Sam would recommend this property

Liked: The place was great! Due to not having WIFI access in the room everyone stayed in one area when using the net. This made it really easy to meet people. Definitely the place you wanna stay if you want to make friends. And the rooms are pretty nice and are reasonabley priced for Paris. Also the location was great!

Disliked: French staff werent great and the hostel did have a curfew and lock out period we werent aware of. Also I did get bites while sleeping so I would pressume my bed had bed bugs. Though only one other person of around 20 also had bites. So pretty good odds!

Liked: Very nice neighbourhood! Really close to metro!

Disliked: The staff was not helpful at all and really unfriendly. I never had such a dirty room in my life!!! The sheets were itchy and there was no (hot) water in the shower. There were no lockers, you had to leave your luggage in the hall before check-in/after checkout.

Liked: Their breakfast have cereal? That's the only good thing I can can think of about this hostel.

Disliked: The staff there is very unhelpful, they never look at you, and just try to get you shut up so they can keep looking at the TV or computer.(plus they dont speak much english) 2:00pm curfew, so dont think about night out if you are gonna stay here. No locker, breakfast ends at 9am, where it is the usual time to start at other hostel. Other than that, it is about average

Liked: 6 computers available for free internet.Free phone call, I did not get thru on to a land line.

Disliked: No room to lock luggage in, so I kept my fingers crossed, as I left my lap top in my bag and the zipper broke off. I had carried my notebook 16 day in Paris

Liked: I felt very comfortable here- I was brand new to the hostel experience before coming so I have nothing to compare it to, but it was clean, and had a good ambience. I really appreciated the free wi-fi, and a good free breakfast downstairs. Overall a nice venue- my room was also clean, especially after hearing horror stories about how bad a hostel could be

Disliked: I did not have any safety or theft issues- that being said, this isn't a big deal, but I sort of wish that they had lockers to keep valuables in

Disliked: I have ordered a room with a double bed, but they gave me a doppelbed and I could not change it. Moreover, the room is extremely small, two fat guys could hardly get into the room. But the breakfast is good, and staff are generally friendly.

26 March 2011 Jacquelyn would recommend this property

Liked: The good thing is that it was close to the metro station, and really close to sacre ceure... really beautifull the area around it. It is a little bit far away from the city center but everyone who enjoys walking and has the right shoes should take a walk through the city. You might see interesting places. The 2 person doom was cute, and nice decorated. But there was no curtain infront of the shower. So take a good friend with you or even your partner who has no problems with nakeness. I was also really impressed about the breakfast. The place is small and sometimes really crowded. But croissants, baguetts, cereals, delicious coffee, orange juice, milk and even hot chocolate were provided ... great.... for a fresh start in the day .. especially in paris. You can also use the PCs for checking your mails and even WiFi is working, but only in the reception area.

Disliked: The staff weren't nice at all, at some point we just stopped asking. I felt uncomfortable although the place is nice decorated, so I and my friend just left after breakfast and returned late in the evening. We didn't use the kitchen but as much as I could see is that it is not well equiped. To open a bottle of wine you have to ask at the reception desk.
