Generally okay to stay for short night. There was a homeless who try to get in when I was check in. It made me feel this hostel may not be safe enough. The bed was fine , the room temperature was okay but a bit dry air. Toilet was okay. Nothing was too much dirty.

Vive The People!

In my opinion, and if you accept that that this is a hostel - not a hotel - this is incredible deal! Great location, great views, a great and friendly vibe, and all at a great price!

Rooftop bar is incredible, everything else just OK

The rooftop cafe/bar is amazing. Everything else was, at best, satisfactory or average. My main complaint was that there's VERY little space in the dorm rooms - it felt very cramped. I know, it's PARIS and if you want space you're gonna pay big money for it. But given that there are lower-priced hostels in the city, I guess I was expecting a bit higher level of amenity here. The shower/bathroom facilities are nice and modern, but weren't very clean and there was water all over the bathroom floor from the showers. Still - the location of the hostel worked for me, given that I just needed a place near Gare de Lyon after a late evening train arrival. I was looking for a bed for one night and a place to shower before catching a flight home from Paris the next morning - so I suppose to that end my basic needs were met. Don't know that I'd book here again, though.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Comfy beds but steps to upper bunk are very loud and creaky, rooms are very cramped. Washrooms felt very dirty because water would collect on the floor and not dry up, causing a smell since there was no ventilation. No common area as well. Rooftop area is very popular with those at the hostel and locals alike therefore busy, so sometimes there was no seating. Location is great, lots around but not too busy and metro is right across.

One of my favourite hostels in Paris. Have stayed here number of times and never disappoints. Location, room and roof top are the highlights. I like how it's close to the station, supermarket next door and plenty of eateries near by.

Really conveniently located, well connected to key areas of Paris and some great food options nearby. Staff were really helpful and the quality of accomodation was great. Beds were comfy and facilities were clean and well maintained. Despite being on a busy roundabout, it was quiet inside. Would definitely stay here again.

Hotel, plaza y metro, excelente convención

Mi estadía fue agradable en la habitación, la ubicación del hotel es buena porque está frente a una plaza y en el mismo lugar hay una estación de metro, esto último es muy conveninte.

The rooftop bar took too many reservations from people not staying at the hostel, so on multiple nights there wasn't any room to dine or to meet people staying there. The front desk staff were amazing, helpful, nice... the rooftop staff not so much. The rooms were great. The bathroom cleanliness depended on the day (clients at fault, just as it is with any hostels). The locations was amazing! The metro was steps away, market right next door, multiple restaurants, cafes, bar, and everything else you need.
