Great Hostel

I love all St. Christophers hostels

• Insider tip:Book Ahead!

Best hostel in paris

this hostel is awesome period. it is the best one in paris to meet some kickin folks. also, the hostel rooms and beds are very comfortable. the showers are very clean and the staff is willing to help you with problems. breakfast sucks though as it does in every hostel

• Insider tip:take your key card every where

Everything I thought it'd be and more

Paris is amazing. The famous monuments were even more impressive in person. We ran into markets and festivals everywhere that offered interesting goods for reasonable prices. We stayed in a suburb south of the city, but it wasn't a problem thanks to the great metro. Buy day-passes and you'll have freedom over the entire city (and Versailles).

• Insider tip:Go to Versailles! But get there early. It's a breathtaking place full of history and culture. Our best day in France was spent there.

Absolute BAD

There is no kitchen (well there is but it is only to be used for breakfast), no common room (unless you count the chairs at the reception). No Hot water (not once in 5 days have i had a hot shower). No cooling for the room, bring your earplugs and open a window. No age restrictions on people staying, had to share with a 55 year old mother and daughter - NO ONE wants to go to a hostel to hang out with mature age people!

• Insider tip:Unless this is the only place left in Paris, find somewhere better!! this is the worst hostel I have stayed in yet!!

i love paris.

one of my favorite cities. great transportation system. just loved every minute i was there.
