Heads Up
While this is overall a great hostel with plenty of positive reviews, some guests have said that the size of the rooms is too small. This is typical in Paris, though. Also, some of the rooms are starting to show their age a bit. And while they do have a bar, this hostel is not known as a party hostel, but is fairly calm and relaxed - perfect for those that want to explore Paris.
