Comments: One of the best hostels I have stayed at. Great central location, staff are more than happy to help, free internet access and wifi, good breakfast (although it is only until 930, they keep the left over croissonts and breadrolls in case you are up late!!). The rooms were really clean and fresh towels were provided each day (in the dorms!). Will defo stay here again and highly recommend it.

Comments: Place was all right, but couldn't lock door to ensuite bathroom. Room was tiny, barely had space for luggage. Vent: reception dude warned about LONG check-in time for int'nal flights, said even earliest train would be too late for 8 am flight. He booked a taxi ride for me saying it will cost about the same as train. Wrong, taxi was 60 Euros! Pus, I got to CDG at 5am, so early I couldn't even check in! Very upset at irresponsible advice, I guess he takes a cut of the taxi fare :(

Comments: There was this one guy who work at night and he lost somebody's luggage cause he wasn't keeping an eye on it. He kept smoking outside and drinking beer at night. And when I went down stairs one early morning I even caught him sleeping.

Comments: great spot, nice safe area. we had a good oom, bt apparently some are pretty small. Not much of a kitchen but there is a supermarket and cheap places to eat across the road, and a launromat next door. I'd stay here again..

Comments: The rooms are okay but wayyyyy too small for 4 people. Free internet and breakfast was really nice. The location is great because it's a two minute walk from a major metro stop.

Comments: Great location! Interesting shops, restaurants and bars all around, and a definite sense of liveliness. The breakfast is the bare minimum (cereal, croissants, rolls, jam, coffee) but tasty. Rooms are very small, and the pillows (at least in my room) are TERRIBLE - thin, depressed and flabby bags of fluff. Bring your own.

Comments: Helpful staff, and is really close to the metro. It's basically a hotel but each room has bunk beds in them, so between 4 people we had our own bathroom, which is a bonus.

Comments: The plus is each room has their own bathroom and shower. The walls in the stairway look like they need to be repaired. Free internet was nice and the laundry mat next door was a plus. only a block from Place de republique metro stop.
