Good location, not far to walk to eiffel tower, near shops, cafe's and pharmacies. Didn't like not being able to enter the room during cleaning hours. great breakfast hot chocolate, cereal, juice, bread rolls. etc.

The customer services was horrible, no attention, I can imagine that the people don't change the bed clothes the smelt so bad, the bathroom i can't describe and for the last you can't stay in your bedroom between 11 am and 4 pm if you need to sleep or do something the answer was it's your problem ...

Likes :- Aloha provides value for money. The location is very good , very near to metro so any part of Paris is easily accessible. Staff is nice and helpful. Rooms , toilets are clean. Dislikes :- No Lockers in room. Temperature control not available for shower (push button showers). Heaters in room are not that good.

nice hostal.. it`d be better if the breakfast changes every other day... the staff was grate, santiago and the other guys and my favorite, my nice and beautifull Jessica. they are always willing to give you the info you need and more. roon are nice and bath too. it`d be nice if they has the credit card machine because everything is in cash.. but it`s nice to be in paris. I will go again if I`m in paris next year.

Very friendly staff who knew a lot about the city. I liked how they didn't try to push you to do hostel organized events, which are usually a rip off.

A guy was harrasing a woman in my room, we asked staff to move her to another room and they said they could not because they have people arriving in a group tomorrow WTF? My issue is the place is no smoking, but there is a little patio inside where people -including the staff- smokes past 10 pm (one day they smoked around 3 am). The rooms are upstairs and we have to leave the window open in the night or risk suffocation, if you have astma dont go there or you may die.

I had a great time! all the women in the staff were nice except for on guy who seemed to be grumpy and reluctant. The male custodian was extatic lol. The only real critical point I'd like to make is that if someone had the mind to steal someones belongings s/he very well could; the staff were laid back and generally trusting of all there clients.

with free breakfast even simple but good enough for bag packer. its take 20 mins to talk to eiffel tower. the staff are very friendly and helpful. the only bad thing is from 11am-5pm nobody could not stay inside of your room. they called its cleaning time. even its a raining day you could not go out at all you have to waiting in the reception room till after 5pm then allow into the room then. so bad and stupid rule.

I stayed at Aloha for 3 days and I liked almost everything, including the staff, which was very helpful, the location (it takes about 10-15 min to get to Eiffel tower on foot), The only thing I mentioned is that the showers & the toilettes were not really clean...But on the whole the atmosphere is really warm there.

The staff was very helpful. The breakfast was very good. The rooms were small and the bathrooms were also small. The room was really cold.

This hostel had a very nice reception area, and the staff was helpful whenever I was looking for things to do and places to find, but the bed I slept in had bed bugs, and I have many bites that are very uncomfortable. This to me is not acceptable, and because of this I would not recommend this hostel to anyone.
