This hotel was not up to our standards. We paid 125 Euros to stay for one night. The hotel is a bad mess. You can smell bad odors from the time you walk in the front door. The room and washroom was in disrepair. I am not sure if the city inspectors visited lately. However, the place should be condemned. The hotel is also in a bad part of town. Save yourself the headache and do not stay here.

Great place to stay, very accommodating for our needs, especially as we had unusual requests. Would stay again. Next to SUBWAY STATION.

The hotel is sort of stinky and old. Do not hope to find many modern things there. Room was not clean on my arrival but, I think it's a good option to spend a night at a low price in Paris. The hotel is near a Metro station and a supermarket Dia where you can find food at low prices.

The room was very dirty, I didnt know if it was even cleaned.. Then the browse of the shower was broken, but the receptionist fixed it in two hours, which was ok. The Room and the hotel itself was very dirty, but the worst thing was, that the heating was a joke.. So in the wintertime its so cold in this room, like there is no heating! It was so cold. And then it was also very loud, because the street is directly beside the hotel. The stuff (I guess the two owners) were friendly + try their best.

Had to cancel the entire reservation when arrived it was so not clean, so obscure and so not fun at all. no hot water in the room - although didn't even care to ask whether it could be fixed or not. Dust and dirt all over bathroom. Staff not very friendly. Had an impression I was the only guest that had booked that hostel for a while.

The worst problem is smell. Everything stinks which is absolutely terrible. If you're going for only 2 or 3 days it could be good. But don't go there for more.

It's a good place for a night. Very decent place for sleeping but you wouldn't like the security since you have to return the key to the reception every time you go out. Then you just say your room number if you want to get the key. That's easy access to anyone's room. Will recommend it if you want a cheap place though since almost everything in Paris is expensive.

The hostel is located in a very good spot of paris. Sadly the owners don't use the whole lot of money they get from us, to care for keeping the hostel in a good shape. The carpets were really dirty and each time you entered the room you needed to open your window for 5 min to get rid off this unlocatable smell. But sleeping there is possible.

It's a place to sleep, that's all. When we got to the hotel, they were cleaning our room, and well it was clean, but the room it's old and some things were broken (we couldn't use the hair dryer, in the shower there was a thing that was broken, a socket that was dangerously hanging on a cable, tobaco marks on the blankets and the furniture... As I said, it's just a place to sleep. The bed was confortable and although we couldnt manage to make the heating work, it was pretty comfortable and hot.

TERRIBLE, THE WORSTEST PLACE I HAVE EVER SEEN! i booked for 3 nights and 2 people, but the room was for 4 people. Due to the fact that there was no one else to stay with us two, the staff made us to pay for 4 intead of 2 people. But luckly we notice that as soon as we get there, so we had a big fight, the recepcionist was extremelly rude and agressive. I still dont now if they will try to charge someting else from my credit card... DEFINATLY DONT RECOMEND.

Staff was quite friendly, however the room was very dirty. The towels did not seem clean, room wasn't cleaned, plus there was no cushion cover for the pillow. Luckily stayed only one night. Won't stay there again. Only good thing was the vicinity to the metro and gare du nord...

Very good location. For sleep and rest after a day walking by Paris is the ideal. Very places near to eat and buy some food.

Really good metro communications, the Louis Blanc is just below the hostel. There is a cheap supermarket ("Dia") only 30 metres away. The higher floors have more light and less traffic sound. Restaurants, patiseries and food shops near this hotel.
