Lovely little hostel/hotel. The triple room was spacious, and they upgraded us to a room with a bathroom! The bathroom was clean, had towels, and was also spacious. The room itself had extra blankets and hangers and a lovely window. It only had one outlet though. The hostel had breakfast (tea/coffe, a chocolate croissant, and a baguette) which was a nice start to the day. It also had free wifi, which had a good connection. Great location near Gare du Nord and a metro, right by a supermarket.

If you enter Perfect Hostel expecting anything besides a bed, toilet, and roof over your head, you will be disappointed. Of course the free breakfast was nice, but being given a towel fit for a three year old was not so nice. It's walking distance from two Metro stations and in a good area of Paris. I'd stay again,but with lower expectations.

It had lockers, it was clean, it was near the Sacre Coeur and close to a subway stop, and there was a nice breakfast in the morning.

Great budget accommodation 10 minutes walk to Sacre Coeur. Staff were so helpful and friendly. Supermarket and amazing bakery couple of houses down and an internet cafe and laundromat couple of minutes away. The bus pretty much outside the front door takes you straight to the Louvre and there's a metro stop 5 minutes away

The house is very badly soundproofed and it would be great to eat breakfast until 10 am! :-) Apart from that everything was satisfying and this hostel is perfect for young people to enjoy Paris.

Nice stay! Great location, in an awesome neighborhood. 5 minutes walking to metro, Sadly, the hostel has an atmosphere of a hotel .So if you are looking for a place to party, this, definetly, isn't the hostel the hostel i would indicate. The staff was not that good. The breakfast was ok and there was wi fi in the rooms

very polite receptionist, amazing location right next to the sacré coeur and very clean. They told us our room had been changed from an ensuite to sharing a bathroom on a different floor, but we were charged 25 euros less beacuse of this and the showers were fine..it doesn´t matter for just a couple of nights. Free brekfast is good too.

The employees were quite unfriendly and did not speak English except the personal at the reception.

The bed was really UNCOMFORTABLE ! It was the same thing that sleeping on the floor or in that freaking bed ! the owner of the hostel have chosen the cheapest bunk bed in Paris. Breakfast is good but It does not make you full of course. there was no problem with security. Location is okay.

Nice Hostel, but the walls are very thin. No problem to hear the people under, over or next to you talking. So if you want the sleep early, it is maybe not the right place for you.

This hostel had an ideal location which wasn't too far from a number of metro stations. The staff were all friendly and very helpful. The only problem were renovation work occurring in the hostel throughout our stay. This caused a problem because the builders started work at 8am which is rather early although our alarms were set for 8:30am so wasn't much of a disruption. Not having a toilet on the 6th floor was also annoying but understandable.

It's worth the value, but not really that close to the metro station. The staff was not really polite, but that is Paris, so I guess people need to get used to it.

Walls are very thin and you can hear your neighbours in the other rooms.

We had a problem with our flight to Paris and we were able to arrive only the day after our first night in the hostel. As soon as we were notice about the flight cancelation because of the snow, we immediately sent an e-mail to the hostel. Next day when we arrived after 12hrs travelling by aircraft and train the manager want us to pay the night we weren´t there (because of the snow). She seems not care about the problem and didn´t consider our notice, she discuss with us and it´s was terrible.

The hotel and the cleaness was good. The staffs too. The reception woman, who works the day, was amazing, very polite and helped us so much.

This was one of the cheapest hotels we could find and we didn't expect much. What we had and experienced was beyond our expectations. You can't get such atmosphere in one of those typical hotel chains. I liked the older French men who helped us with suitcases and served us breakfast. I loved the old curvy staircases and view from the balcony. Metro station is just a little walk away and there is so much to see in the neighbourhood. We'll stay there again in the future.

- no hair dryer in the room no TV in the room - poor breakfast (very smal one and you have to finish it before 9:30; if not, the staff starts to put the chairs up the tables to indicate you that´s the time...)

Great location, but staff was not very polite and mostly in a bad mood and the walls are so thin that you can hear your neighbours talking as if you were in the same room. When you leave the hostel you have to leave the key at the reception - but when we were coming back, there was another receptionist, who didn't ask for names or anything, he just gave us the key we wanted. The room (2 persons, with bathroom) was nice, not very big but clean and okay just for sleeping. Breakfast is okay, too.
