Great stay, recommended and would come back.
Highly recommended. Great staff and facility. Location is in Gentilly, a fair distance from the center of action but it is very close to the metro station. Food outlets nearby. I had a "cabin" which I consider unique. It's a small enclosure so you have a tiny but private room. The bathroom is shared. I liked the facility and the cabin a lot and would stay here again.

This was surprisingly one of The best places I’ve stayed. I stayed in the double private room with the private terrace and it was awesome. The room was extremely clean and the terrace was huge had a really nice view of the Eiffel Tower, amd has a large day bed on it. The staff is very nice and helpful, there’s a great party vibe at night but if you’re not into that, you can retreat to your room and not hear any noise at all. The metro is a 3 Minute walk From the hotel and takes you very easily to the main attractions. Breakfast is continental and has a lot of options. My only complaint is that the bed was extremely, extremely hard which is a pretty important part of your stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again as long as I called before and

I’m not usually much for a hostel stay kind of person, but I didn’t want to pay $200 for one night stay in Paris before my flight, so I decided to try out this hostel. The photos looked cool, so I went for it. The place itself is very modern and stylish. I appreciated having a cabin room all to myself, having no windows makes it very dark and claustrophobic, but for one night stay it’s good enough. It can get noisy at times, but nothing unbearable. The shareable bathrooms/shower facilities are nice and clean. Best part was that it’s located 3 minute walk from the metro. I was taking the train yo to Charles De Gaulle airport and it was super fast and easy. Overall, great stay for a low price in Paris.

Really enjoyable solo travel experience
I stayed in a cabin which was ideal for a solo traveler although it is a bit of a hit or miss whether you get roommates who are like you (quiet or party etc) as with any hostel. I liked the cabin concept and the staff were very friendly. Despite the events going on down at the bar you couldn’t hear them upstairs. My only suggestion would be for the hostel to add a vending machine by reception for late night snacks and water.

My husband and I stayed for one night and were very disappointed in our stay. Upon arrival, we requested (and paid) for a late check out. We got to our room to find that it wasn’t clean and there were no towels anywhere. The room smelled strongly of urine. It was, frankly, disgusting. The front desk did help us with clean towels, but that was it. The next day our key cards abruptly stopped working. Come to find out, no one put our late checkout on our room. My husband had to stop and spending 45 mins getting new keycards. Finally, we were informed upon departure that our room would normally be about 45 euros per night. We paid over $100 usd. No one could (or would) explain the discrepancy in price. All and all, we were very disappointed in our experience and wouldn’t recommend or stay here again.

I was supposed to say about 6 nights but ending up staying none. When I arrived the staff were very nice but once I got up to my private room it was a sauna with no running air. I got a private room but had to use communal showers that were very dirty. Every toilet stall had no toilet paper, the floor and the seats of the toilet were filthy. It’s a long walk to get to the hostel from the metro with nothing to look at. It’s in a more residential area so you have to walk a good distance to get to the more major stores.
