    Comfortable dorm in a great location if you need easy connections

    • Bed in 6-Bed Dormitory Room with Shared Bathroom
    • Stayed 1 night

    If you have a top bunk, it is worthwhile to bring an eyemask as some guests may turn the lights on at late hours. There is a bar downstairs which can be loud, so if you are sensitive to noise, it's worth bringing earplugs.

    I needed a place to stay for a single night in Paris. This location is great for many connections, right between Gare du Nord (and access to DeGaulle airport) and Gare de l'Est. The dorm is comfortable enough, with a bit of privacy for each bed and easy access to bathrooms. Exactly what I was looking for overall.

    I missed organization during the festivities scheduled for the week in the bar connected to the hostel. The mattresses on the beds are worn out, causing back pain, the drawers under the beds need maintenance, they are noisy and some are broken.

    The good location, close to Gare dy Norde station for those who use Eurostar like me, helps a lot, close to Montmartre, the distances make it possible to walk to some destinations such as the Eifell Tower. I liked the bar integrated with the Hostel,

    I find 50 euros quite steep for a bed in a 10 people room, but that‘s Paris.

    It’s well located. Building is well maintained and beds are solid and the whole setup is quite nice (e.g. beds have curtains and energy outlets). Staff was nice too.

    There was no lift access to the locker room which was a bit of a pain. The shared bathrooms had two shower stalls right next to two toilets stalls which worked fine technically but there was some mild flooding after showers. Showers were always clean when I used them. There was an old man who slept in the bunk underneath mine which made me uncomfortable throughout the stay through no fault of the hostel, but I may opt to stay in a women's dorm for future trips to France.

    The front desk let me check in a few hours early though I couldn't access the room yet, the staff were overall very helpful and kind. The beds are much wider than expected and quite comfortable, there's multiple easily accessible sockets above the bed and a ledge to keep small things. The room itself was spacious with large windows, a desk and chair, as well as a sink area with a mirror and hooks. I really liked the vending machines in the lobby. I didn't make use of them but there were washers, dryers and a microwave in the common room that I imagine must be useful. Noise wasn't an issue for my particular room on the second floor. Location was obviously super accessible, less than a minute walk from Gare du Nord which houses the Eurostar, rer and multiple metro lines that gets you anywhere in Paris and beyond.

    Common area seats very few people. I was aware that there was only a microwave and kettle but the microwave was usually dirty. It was very warm so had to choose between opening the windows and hearing the loud streets or being roasted. Pillows were not comfy.

    Great location right next to Gare du Nord for easy metro to everywhere in Paris. Lots of places to eat or drink locally at cheaper prices than those closer to the Seine. Beds were good and I like the privacy curtains in the dorms.

    The sink in the toilet was not really clean, but I am not sure as many guests stayed in the female section

    It was close to the train station, restaurants, and public transportation. I was in the female section and I felt secure.

    Not the cleanest of places, I found an old piece of chocolate between the mattress and the bed frame.. also could be cause it was the weekend, but loud music was playing till late at night, and not even closing the windows helped escape the noise

    Location really is great for connections, other than that the sinks in the room were convenient

    Its nice to have that curtain thing for more privacy. And having your bathroom in your room is a good thing.

    The noise from the PUB on the ground floor, owned by the hostel, going up to the rooms till late night is NOT nice, besides not having an actual common area (not considering the pub) and a real kitchen with sink and cutlery. The pillows were trash, really bad, they could improve on that.

    Very close to the metro Gare du Nord, good point, not too far from the city centre and main attractions. Breakfast is a considerable choice.

    The showers. We only had 2 showers for a couple of dorms and the drains were blocked. Which creates a lake that goes in the corridor every time someone takes a shower. Also, one shower didn’t have any hot water. You can’t adjust the temperature of the water either. Pretty small and your things end up being wet at the end of the shower.

    It was close to the Gare du Nord, but I don’t recommend the district where the emplacement is. It was overall pretty great. Cheap breakfast, cheap night. I’ve seen a lot worst.

    There was an additional tax I apparently had to pay of 2 euros upon arrival. It's not a lot but it did surprise me. Furthermore, if you arrive early you cannot drop off your luggage at the hostel as up until check-in you have to buy a locker for €8 per day. Instead I went to the luggage drop off 4 blocks away at Gare du Nord which was cheaper.

    I loved the easy-going nature of the personnel, the beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were clean and very practical. Generally speaking it was very cleanly and the location is perfect as it is only two blocks away from Gare Du Nord metro and train station.
