Nice, clean, with friendly staff. Really like that bed spaces are sectioned off (either by curtains or by being the top bunk with walls either side), so you get privacy. Bathrooms are clean. Was offered to use the sports facilities for free too! The location is very good, right by the Rosa Parks station - just come out, turn left and the hostel is right there. Night bus to the airport (N140) is a 5 minute walk (in front of Rosa Parks station).

    Good location close to Père Lachaise cemetery. Easy to reach by subway. The neighborhood looks a bit gloomy by night in the middle of the winter but the room and its facilities are great. The staff is very friendly and the breafast is wonderful. The place feels like a vintage youth hostel and is totlly unlike many contemporary hostel run to maximize profit. It was just perfect for a one night stay when you travel alone for work and on a tight budget. It's also great for families and even dog friendly.

    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.
