Summary of traveller reviews

The People Caen offers a modern and clean stay with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Guests praise the comfortable beds, private cubicles with curtains, and excellent location near the train station and city centre. The rooftop bar and restaurant are popular, though some note a lack of social atmosphere for hostel guests. Some recent reviews mention issues with room temperature and kitchen cleanliness.

Quiet room and pristine bathroom, staff extremely friendly and helpful. Left food items in kitchen fridge, nothing went missing! Restaurant serves good food, reasonably priced (especially with 10% guest discount). Book ahead as it gets very busy with locals and guests. Indigo multi-story next door very convenient - expensive but took the hassle out of finding a parking space nearby. Tram stop right outside the door, combined tram-bus ticket gets you around the city all day for 4euros!

Great location for the train station. Really enjoyed the large lockers and bed was pretty comfy. The kitchen was easily accessible although hot at times. I had to wait over an hour after 15:00 for my room to be ready but at least I got a free drink. I like the key card access component but it made going to the toilets a little annoying at times. Overall would recommend when visiting Caen.
