The experience was not good, everything is charged separately, 2 hours before check-in and you have to pay 8 euros to leave your luggage. In other hostels you either pay nothing or pay less because you are staying there. Towels, padlocks (and if you bring them from home, take a big one, because small ones don't close the suitcase box), etc. are charged for everything, so be careful and consider extra expenses. The staff were not very sociable either, they seemed to be obligated and even though I explained that my foot was hurt, when I got to the room my bed was the top one, even though there was only 1 bed occupied in the room, total disregard. When it was time to shower, every 30 seconds the water turned off and you had to keep pressing it all the time and you didn't get a good shower because of that, there was no soap in the dispensers. And there was no toilet paper in the bathroom. I wouldn't recommend it for all these reasons.

The room was comfortable, but some of the receptionists and a restaurant manager were so rude. I stayed 7 nights total. When I added one more night after the 4 nights of stay, I accidentally clicked on 6 mixed room reservation instead of the same 6 women's room I Stayed for 4 nights. I ran down to ask if I could change to the same room, instead of checking out and go to a different room, a receptionist asked for the additional 17 Euro. I just left the reception area. Two days later, the same woman accompanied a security guard, abruptly opened the room door while we were talking about America vs. France with a room mate, saying "it was reported someone speaking English woman was screaming in this room". I asked, "did you hear my voice from outside?" After she Knew she got the wrong room, she even did not apologize for being rude. Another issue was a manager, came to me when I was eating Chicken avocado sandwich I ordered, "You are eating somebody else's food." I knew that was my order because it was not the first time I ordered the chicken menu. I did not respond while I was eating and after I finished eating, I walked to the manager. "What happened? It was my order." The manager never said sorry for what he did to the restaurant customer. He just walked into the kitchen. He knew I left a big tip for the waiter that I did not know the tips were shared. After I found out the tips were shared, No Tips! I don't think I want to give the tips even a penny to some people rude .

The place is beautiful but the room I was, was always smelling bad, the bathroom as well, and the bed’s curtain looked really old and didn’t cover all the bed

The hostel room is spacious, bed with curtains, a storage underneath the bed but it requires a large lock to lock, a normal padlock can't lock it. But there is a bar downstairs which opens until 3 am. I had no problem with the noise, but others in the room could not sleep at night due to the noise and had to close the window. There are no fans or air conditioning in the room. Closing the window in the summer in Paris meant suffocation and hot to me, and that made me unable to sleep. The condition in the toilet/bathroom is OK. But some showers were blocked or had boiling water.

Lys, the host at the front desk was super friendly and helpful! She also is really charming & funny, which makes the whole process that much more enjoyable. Lys is very well informed and will definitely give you practical advice for all of your inquiries. This is reflected throughout the property. There’s a bar & cafe on the ground floor directly on the canal. The bartender is really efficient and cordial! The rooms and showers were quiet, calm and surrounded by greenery.

Really enjoyed this stay! I stayed in the 6 people room with a private bathroom and balcony. Meeting travelers and sharing our itineraries made the trip so much more fun. The room had a lot of bugs which was a down fall and we didn’t have Wi-Fi for the first couple of days. Got Wi-Fi the last 2 nights of my stay. The workers were really nice and accommodating. The hostel bar closes at a certain time and after that only people staying in the hostel are allowed in and the security at the front door makes sure of it. I felt safe and would recommend to solo travelers. Also perfect place to stay if you want to hop on the train or bus and go around Paris. Not too close to all the main attractions which was very nice. Coming back from a long day and seeing people relaxing on the canal or joining people on the canal was great!

Overall a good hostel to stay at. The elevator was out so it was a hassle to carry luggage up many flights of stairs. Area feels much less like a tourist area which is nice, but not as much dining around. The room and bathrooms were fairly clean. Restaurant in the hostel was also very good and you get a discount which is nice.

I was a single female staying here in a mixed dorm and I felt very safe. The hostel has a security guard and every floor is key locked as well as your room. I couldn’t hear noise from the other rooms and I was very impressed with how clean the hostel was kept. The neighbourhood homes a lot of families and is full of bars, bakeries, restaurants and ice cream. You only need to take 1 metro line to get to the main attractions and the distance means that everything in the neighbourhood is cheeper than you would find closer to the city center

Kudos to reception & security staff!!! They’re amazing individuals!! They continue to offer great customer service regardless of the difficulties they face! I observed some extremely difficult guests and the staff dealt with the situation so calmly it was impressive!! They truly want to assist guests and ensure you have a fabulous time as a guest. I did enjoy my stay and was impressed by the cleaning & maintenance staff! They’re efficient and pay attention to detail. There are many hotels who do not clean as often as this cleaning staff! There were “chill spots” and activities on a regular basis if one were so inclined to participate. This was a great stay and I look forward to the next!

You cannot control temperatures in the showers. I had to wash my hair in a utility sink because the shower was so hot I could not stand in it. The staff were VERY rude. One day I was allowed to buy coffee, the next day, it was forbidden. There was a security guard monitoring the kitchen entrance. The lockers in the rooms were so small. I t says that they have free cancellation, which is untrue unless you're willing to change rooms. I got what I paid for - I would not recommend it to anyone. You can take transit, but the neighbourhood at night is so scetchy, that you need to take a taxi, which the front desk wouldn't call for me.

It's an affordable place to stay but unfortunately, we didn't meet any fun or chatty people which is annoying because I've stayed in many party hostels before. Everyone is very sociable but the people in our room weren't which makes me wonder why they are staying in a hostel if you are antisocial like go away and stay in a private room dear but apart from that when the staff take the deposit from you on the card for the keys they give it back to you as cash which is silly because I didn't want cash id rather you put it back on the card you took it off.

Helpful staff, but grumpy and sour cleaning lady. My mattress was rock hard. For that reason I did not have good nights of sleep. The storage boxsystem under the beds could have been smarter, so it wasn`t that noisy. Almost impossible not to wake up the others because of those. Acceptable walking distance to public transportation. The area is a bit boring but ok.
