Great Service, slightly odd area
I thought the stay was great. The area around it was okay, but I arrived late in the evening. The service was great and understanding because I had a different time with the doors.

It went very well for me. Frankly, it met my expectations. It has affordable prices, proximity to the center, easy transportation and good service. The room is quite adequate and useful. The rooms are quiet, warm and calm. My roommates were similarly quiet and calm. Toilet and shower easy. Sometimes, depending on the quality of people coming, toilets may not be clean, but this rarely happens.

Good hostel but lacks ambiance.
Clean bedroom and reception area, but toilets and showers need more frequent cleaning. Too many beds have been cramed in the dormitory. There is no room for luggage especially as they only give you a locker no bigger than a pigeon hole. The beds could also do with black out blinds. The breakfast is very basic and you would be better off going to a cafe and get more for the same amount of money. Whilst I am not a fan of this hostel, the staff were fantastic. Their enthusiasm and helpfulness towards all was amazing.

Friendly and Comfortable!
The staff here were some of the nicest ever! They made me feel welcome right away. The hostel is comfortable with a nice common space. Staff is friendly and they have chocolates at the front desk when you check in. :-) There were blow dryers in the bathroom and nice touches to make your stay comfortable.

SLO- for Stay LOnger
the area looked sketchy when first arrived, but after a few nights walking around, it was just "local flavor". The common area is very modern and has "homely" feeling. Showers are private and roomy. Toilets are always clean. Guests are mature travelers type, no rude or loud noises. Kitchen is cramped, only room for one person at a time. Didn't see a fridge for food storage. Easy to walk everywhere.

Modern and hip hostel in Lyon
Great hostel for a quick pit stop during a European trip. The design is very cool looking and there shared spaces are great. The rooms are simple looking towards the inner garden, which can be a bit noisy at night if you want to keep the windows open to get fresh air.

Good overall!
Nicely decorated reception n dining area, Free welcome drink is a great gesture. The bathroom isn’t clean most of the time, sink area always wet! The neighbourhood isn’t the best area in Lyon, groups of men always hanging around on the street day and night, might be a bit spooky if you’re a sole female traveler
