Summary of traveller reviews

Auberge Internationale des Jeunes in Paris offers a fantastic location, ideal for exploring the city. While basic, many guests find it a good value. However, some recent reviews mention issues with cleanliness, particularly smelly towels and bedding, and a lack of essential amenities like soap and sufficient power outlets. The mandatory room exit between 11 am and 3 pm is also a recurring point of frustration.

Location was good but lacked facilities. Bedsheets were dirty upon arrival. We stayed during the heatwave when it was 40 degrees and the accommodation couldn’t provide us with fans. The room was sweltering and warmer than outside. Being kicked out of our room from 11-3 during the heat wave was also not ideal. You had to queue up and wait to get ur key back when you hand it in when you leave. Would never consider staying here again
