The property was as nice as could be for a hostel, but I was not aware that it was a hostel when I booked it. E185 for one night was higher than I expected for a hostel; glad we got our own room, but we had to share the bathroom. Staff were very nice though, and because both my teens were sick (daughter had a very high fever), the staff let me bring her tea and toast which I knew was normally not permitted. I am grateful for that. And grateful that they had late check in.

City break
We stayed 2 nights in this hostel and enjoyed it for the great central location. The room was clean but the lack of airconditioning was a big negative in mid-August in Paris. Otherwise fine.

Awful
Terrible hostel. They won’t let you stay in your room or access your belongings from 12-3 everyday. I was feeling very unwell and just wanted to relax in bed when 12 housekeeping ladies came in and shouted at me in French, which I don’t understand. I would never return and highly recommend looking elsewhere. Only good thing is location.

Shower doors were very dirty (calcified); no handsoap/towels provided in room's bathroom. Breakfast is somewhat basic but sufficient. Rooms are spacious and property is pretty. Not the best location but its ok. Staff is amazingly welcoming and helpful. During summer I imagine the place getting very loud, although that was not the case in early March.

There was only one electric socket in 4 person room. And if you stay on upside of the bunk, it comes at you while you are trying to go up. Toilets are clean but toilet paper is not even paper. Totally something else :)

The rooms were clean, people were friendly, it was nice that they offered free breakfast. The internet connection is very spotty and there is a homeless encampment right beside the front door of the hostel. They were pretty loud the first night, living/sleeping/arguing just below my window. That being said, I would stay at one of their 3 locations again.

I really like the location of the hostel and the staff were very helpful when answering questions. Only concern was that the toilets didn't have their own sink basin, it would be a good addition as I have to go to my room to clean my hands after using the toilet facilities.

The bed was fine, but the bathroom could’ve been cleaner. The WiFi doesn’t work in the room. There was no fridge to store food. I also saw some bugs. Also, I don’t know why but I had to get my card key fixed 3 times...On the bright side, they have a luggage room, and they let you store your bag there on the day you check out. There’s also a keyboard. They have good security at the door, especially when it’s late.

Great location, very clean
Location was excellent, I was travelling by myself so felt very safe. A lot of nice clothes shops around. Location was great, room very clean. For breakfast there was a limited selection and there was no air con in the room which could make it very hot if temperatures go over 35C Overall, I was very happy with quality vs price

I accidentally booked a hostel instead of hotel but was pleasantly surprised. Location is close to metro which makes getting anywhere very easy. The staff was helpful - room was clean - and while I still prefer hotels I would recommend to you get travelers

Good location but bare bones for the cost
The building (lobby and staircase and big windows in rooms) has beautiful character, but the private room was utilitarian. Curtains, pillows, shower, shelves-- everything is cheap and barebones and plasticy. Room was clean and the mattress was comfortable but I wish there was the option to rent a towel (I had neglected to bring one and overheard a tired traveler being told to go out and buy one at 8 pm when they arrived). Also it's 2019, invest in some wifi that covers all floors of the building (only available in the lobby). Overall felt like a lot of money for a space that has a lot of unrealized potential. Location is great and easy to access multiple lines of the metro. Previously stayed in the same area in an airbnb that, while small, came with towels, its own toilet, wifi and an elevator, and for $70 less. Would recommend that route over this establishment.

Lovely old building in the heart of Paris with easy walk to metro. Beds were comfortable and room was clean. Simple European breakfast served every morning. Not a lot of outlets though, and it is filled with noisy young people as well as street noise, but ear plugs did the trick for me. Would def. stay here again.

Stayed there about the same time a school class went on a trip so it was a bit loud; wifi was only on the courtyard. Breakfast was minimal, and restaurant difficult to find. Besides that, good location, clean.
