12 October 2010

Liked: It was close to my conference venue.

Disliked: The front desk staff were rude and sarcastic, the rooms were cramped beyond belief, the prices were too high and there were no lockers or security for belongings.

10 October 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It was relatively cheap and I had a place to stay. There were croissants for breakfast and I was able to use a computer when I needed to. The rooms were also safe.

Disliked: My bathroom was missing a lock, which wasn't helpful. Also, the front desk staff did not speak much English. There isn't a central meeting place, which made it hard to hangout in the hostel at night. Locaiton was not convenient to the main tourist points of the city.

06 October 2010 Charlotte would recommend this property

Liked: It was a good location, close to the station and a nice area. The girl on the desk was really helpful and friendly. It was cheap for Paris. The room was bright green (which was odd) but it was still a nice atmosphere. I don't know why but I really liked it.

Disliked: It looked like it could do with a little fixing up... but it all adds to the character I suppose.
