Cosy environment and friendly staff
Both the staff and my roommates were very courteous during my stay. A cosy environment and respectful and friendly staff.
Suggestion: The food and beverage part can be made a little more affordable. I had a smooth and peaceful stay. I would prefer it again, thank you.

It’s kind of a nostalgic visit for me. There are so many great memories from here. From walking the sunset at night on the roof top to partying downstairs. And the staff is amazing.

Well located but very average stay
A well positioned hotel for exploring the city. Don’t be fooled by online photos, not especially accurate for our room. Beds were uncomfortable with metal bed frame slats that made the mattress slide around.
We asked everyday for some fresh towels but never received any; excuse was either ‘someone will bring some’ or ‘we have run out and are expecting a delivery’.
Food in the restaurant was average but very expensive. Drinks were ridiculously priced!!!

I always try to stay here whenever I am in Paris. This time I had a single room with a balcony and a bath which I highly recommend.

Top quality hostel
It´s not close to the city center and it's around a little bit sketchy area but this is a top quality hostel, perhaps the best hostel i've ever been.

Overall the experience was okay, The staff was eager to help and the hotel location was good. The hotel kitchen had good food options.
We did face issue with the heating of the room that we stayed in. It wasn’t working properly.
The technician tried to fix the issue but I don’t think it worked because the issue persisted. We were to leave early next morning so we didn’t go back to complain for the third time.
Everything else was okay.

Decent hotel. Nothing fancy. But fine. Bit out the way of Paris centre, but metro station just across the road from hotel. Area outside busy, but safe. Shops and restaurants close by. Room was clean enough. Beds quite comfy. Shower quite poor tho. Either freezing cold or roasting hot. Food at hotel okay. Choose hotel as it was a cheaper option for us, get what you pay for. Wouldn’t rush back but would recommend.

This is a very nice hostel, located with easy access from Gar de l'Est and Metro. Beds maybe not super comfy, but good enough for us, a family of four. Staff very helpful, as I managed to de-magnetize our room keys three times...
And the rooftop bar in the evening sun is great!

When I checkin in the morning the heater not work and it was freezing inside the room. The other roomate told the receptionist the night before but they hadn't fixed it until the evening of my checkin. Anyway they let me checkin early so I gave 3 stars.
