Liked: The place is great. The staff are wonderful and incredibly accommodating. Their set-up, while a little suspect at first, given that you have to meet them at a nearby cafe, is nothing to worry about. Their prized penthouse floor has a rare view of Paris that is probably only rivaled by the Eiffel Tower and the ugly giant black building at the foot of Rue de Montparnasse. The style of the Hostel is much more like a Hotel/Apartment then the regular student res-esque accommodations. I really enjoyed my stay and I would definitely come and stay here again.

Disliked: I disliked nothing.

Liked: Great location and very helpful staff! The hostel has a very comfortable feel, like being in your own apartment. There is even a flat screen TV in the livingroom! I liked how the staff picks up the guests form the train station. I would definitely stay here again.

Disliked: Joseph left no negative feedback.

Liked: the location was very central and i had a private room which had a large room. good wifi, computer and kitchen facilties

Disliked: on the whole the idea of the hostel would seem to work well but it is very unorganised with no reception to ask questions and get advice for travelling paris. it is also very squishy and you have to hang out with the others in the dorm room which can be good for making friends but if you dont get along with the people your staying with or you want some time alone then that could be a problem. on hostel bookers it seems like it is a great place to stay but staying at an actual hostel is alot more convenient and you get alot more tips and services.

Liked: 14th floor has awesome view, and it is close from market, station.

Disliked: I heard property's quality depends on apartment. There are several apts, and some say 14th floor is better than 4th floor.

Liked: Wowww! the view from my dorm on the14th floor was amazing! I could see the whole city from there! honestly, when I booked, I didn't expect to get so much for the price: giant TV with cable and a PC in my dorm, free internet...I could even watch a movie in english from my bunk. I've never been able to do this in a hostel before. It was well heated and really cosy, and cleaner than most hostels I have stayed at. And the location right on top of the main train station is just unbeatable. MERCI!

Disliked: This place fills up fast so I couldn't book an extra night:(

Liked: Friendly helpful staff, amazing view from the place, well heated. This place has a very unique set up.

Disliked: The place is dirty. A cleaner should come in everyday to ensure the place is well kept. I understand that people should clean up after themselves but the kitchen and bathroom definitely require regular cleaning from a professional.

Liked: A proper apartment which was nice after being in so many hostels. Location right above a train station and metro so easy to get around the city from there - although we also walked a lot of places

Disliked: Just an apartment so if you are on your own you are relying on meeting people in the apartment to do things with. Previous people staying hadn't done dishes and stuff which was a little messy, but I wasn't using the kitchen so didn't worry me

Liked: Great view from the 14th floor! Central location which makes walking to the major Paris sights doable, though if you want to ride the metro, the station is right next door. You get to experience apartment life in the heart of Paris.

Disliked: It's not a traditional hostel where you can meet everybody else in the building, so if you get a bad group of people in your apartment, it could lessen your enjoyment. But this is offset by the fact that you have, you know, an apartment!

Liked: Apartment style is a good concept, decent size of private room.

Disliked: The staff is very unorganized. You have no real way of getting in contact with them besides a phone call to an office...and nobody ever picks up! The whole pickup situation is sketchy. They only work from 1-8, but they hardly did that. We didn't get clean sheets until 11pm and we checked in at 1pm! And this was after calling the office NONSTOP for hours and being promised it would only take an hr or two after checkin (even though it should have been ready as soon as we got there) There are clean clothes drying in the shower right above your head.. and 6 beds in the living room, which makes no sense. The lady never showed up to get my card info and they just took the money out of account at a random time. Honestly, this place is decent, but save yourself the time and the aggravation, spend a few more euros and go somewhere else.
