I wouldn't spend on the breakfast though but there are cafes nearby. Good location for walking around sightseeing and good restaurants and shopping nearby!

    Great location ! Very charming apartment with comfortable beds in the best area in Le Marais (the historical heart of Paris). Notre Dame, Seine River, Louvre and other museums are all walking distance. Neighborhood is safe and the street is calm. In front of the place was a grocery store and at the end of the street a nice French bakery with friendly people. The place itself was clean, with an elevator and the host was very responsive to our needs. Ideal for our family of 4. Highly recommended.

    Everything was exactly as it is in the photos I booked girls dormitory for 6 and it was the best decision. The bed was extremely comfortable in a way that I cannot describe. I wish I could have the time to sleep more but it's Paris... Metro is super close and the lines are convenient to go everywhere Supermarket downstairs next to the building was really helyto buy cheap stuff... All in all best experience in Paris for a hostel..And yes am coming again. By the way the view at night of the Eiffel tower at the rooftop was... magnifique !!!

It’s so close to the train station & a really great patisserie (with the yellow). The reception staff and bartenders are so fun & helpful. Rooms are spacious, bed has light and powerpoint, bathrooms are everything you need then to be.

    The hostel is a fantastic budget option for Paris. While nothing is cheap or in the city the hostel is a more affordable option. I stayed in the female dorm which was clean at most times, but more importantly quiet and private. The dorms are very clean and built to have privacy and safety. One of my best hostel experiences while travelling not as a backpacker but as part of a city trip.

    Great location, it's near convenience stores, pharmacies, there's even a cinema very close by (if you want to try that out), lots of dining options right outside the hotel. There is great WiFi in the rooms. It was a small room, but it was warm, clean and comfortable. We only used it to shower and sleep. Not the best looking place, but it was very cheap. The staff were very nice and kind. Would recommend it to people on a budget.
