Very bad hotel, very old rooms. It is a place only to sleep. If nothing is found, you can choose it just to sleep... There is a WIFI

Bad points: The room smells like cigarette smoke. We stayed in a room that was in front of the washroom and many people mistook the place and tried to open our door. The internet was slow, but it worked. There is only one duche and it is not very good and cleaned. Good points: The people speak english better than other places we stayed in Paris. The hostel is almost in front of the metro. There is a supermarket nearby the hostel. It is near a famous church in Paris. There is a coffee machine.

The staff was pleasant, however cleanliness was sub par. My room had bed bugs, I woke up every morning covered in bites; not a very good experience.

Stayed here in December on a trip to Paris. The hotel, although very old looking and desperately needing renovated, was close to the metro, clean, cheap and most importantly WARM!! :) Within walking distance to the Sacre Coeur it was in a decent area and the price meant we had extra to spend in the shops around Paris!

This hostel has BED BUGS. and they will blame it on YOU and tell you YOU brought them in your suitcase!! They won't refund you for your entire stay, or any medicine you bought for your bites, or the pajamas you have to throw out. THEY DEFINITELY WILL NOT CHANGE THE MATTRESS. they said that they have gotten complaints like this before and they always told people they brought the bed bugs with them and it was't their fault! Beware because this hostel must be crawling with them!

You arrived at 29th November. you were 3 people. among you three, 1 has had some problem; the 2 others no problem !! We have changed you immediatly room and we have you assigned one room for 4 persons for cost 92 euros while your booking was for 3 persons 75 euros. So 17 euros x 2 nights = 34 euros in your favor. And we have you refunded you 1 night . then you say you were not reimbursed, you may have forgotten that you signed your paper refund. ! And this is not enough for you and didn't stop come and go to the reception to be paid 11 euros of medicament to the point of blackmail us. and you want refund all your stay.. but why you didn't stayed just the first night and left the next day !! We have shame for you. Fortunately, all customers are not like you. About Bed Bugs, i'll let you look in google "Bedbugs in New york", you wild have an idea ..

We stayed in a private double which had the classic French full size window. In an area that's not too touristy. There are several great restaurants just a few minutes walk away, and Sacre Cour is very close. There is great access to the Metro with several close stations and Simplon just round the corner. Hostel itself is very old, as are the furnishings but is good value. No lock out time. Was warm, had towels inc. and clean sheets. Would stay again happily. Better than cheaper Paris hostels.

It was a good place to sleep at night, the location was pretty far but the subway system wasn't as crazy as everyone kept telling me. It wasn't anything special. The lady at the front desk was not helpful and a little confused. Also the internet was the worst.

Compare to others its cheap but nothing special. It has no character the location is good couse its close to the metro but its not really close to the city center. There is wifi avalible but its not really working on the top floors. The security is not bad but after the cleaner lady cleand the room she forgot to lock the door again.. We spend 3 nights at the end of november but the heater was working only one night so it was a bit cold.

The room was nicely furnished, but it was not clean at all. There were curious spots on the wallpaper and the sink also was not clean. Also if you find good sleep important, the hotel is not the right choice for you because you can hear people in the hallway as well as in your neighbour rooms. The shared bathroom was clean but that is all to say. Also as a girl I would not want to walk on the streets by night in this neighbourhood on my own. It is not in the best part of montmartre.
