Nous avions réservé un séjour pour plusieurs nuits et nous n'avons même pas dormi une nuit.

Le ménage n'était pas fait, pas de volet aux fenêtres, et quand nous sommes arrivés dans notre chambre quelqu'un était en train de prendre sa douche (alors que nous occupions tous les lits de la chambre...).

Bref ! nous avons préféré payer notre nuit comme inscrit dans le contrat et allez dans une autre auberge (cout de l'opération : 50€/personne)...

Hotel qui en vaut son prix... Quartier peu chaleureux, meme si proche de Montmartre. Accueil sans plus, Ils n avaient meme pas de quoi me rendre la monnaie, les chambres restent ouvertes et certaines personnes ne respectent pas les lieux, pas de volets et rideaux tramsparents, chambre de 6 non climatisée donnant sur le boulevard bruyant. En vaut bien son prix.

L'aspect sécurité des biens n'est pas très présent dans cette auberge. Les affiches qui conseillent de ne pas laisser d'objets de valeur dans la chambre sont peu rassurantes, d'autant plus que l'endroit réservé aux bagages à la réception n'est pas constitué de casiers individuels, mais bien uniquement d'une salle accessible aux employés, qui ne sont pas toujours au bureau de la réception. Les employés vont aussi dans les chambres pour ouvrir la fenêtre, ce qui n'est pas sécuritaire. Sinon, les murs sont quand même bien isolés. Il y a du service quand quelque chose manque ou brise. La présence d'une douche et d'un lavabo dans la chambre est avantageuse. Léger manque d'équipement (ex: tapis de douche, four fonctionnel, etc.) et aspect esthétique de la chambre laissant à désirer. Cette auberge est recommandable pour quelqu'un qui ne veut pas payer cher, mais il ne faut pas s'attendre à grand chose.

+ Месторасположение. Хостел расположен прямо возле метро, стоит только перейти дорогу. Если будете ехать после пересадки с первой линии метро, то нужно садится в последний вагон поезда, т.к. будет ближе идти к хостелу. Несмотря на то что написано в других отзывах что это бандитский район и он очень опасен, я так сказать не могу. Да - возле метро стоят люди, которые чем-то торгуют, но они никого не трогают и насильно покупать ничего не заставляют. Просто выкрикивают название своей продукции. К слову, я была девушкой, путешествующей в одиночку. Этот раон Монмарта, Мулен Ружа и базилики Секре Кер, т.е. центр, там совсем не страшно

+ Чистое постельное белье

+ Приветливый административный персонал

- Довольно шумно - в хостеле много людей, к тому же как раз возле хостела метро выходит наружу и очень слышен шум поездов, а также скрипучие кровати. Но это не серьезная проблема. По крайней мере для меня. Тем более за 15 евро за ночь

- Маленькая кухня и душ. Очень маленькие. Но зато почти всегда свободные, очереди из людей не наблюдала ни там, ни там

О данном хостеле у меня только положительные впечатления, смело остановлюсь там при следующем визите в этот замечательный город

Bonjour ,j'ai trouvé que tout le personnel était sympatique et accueillant.Par contre ,il y a des petits rien qui donnerait un peu plus de confort dans la chambre et douche:par exemple,mettre une serpillère pour que l'on puisse essuyer le sol après la douche,quand on est 4 pour prendre une douche ,il y a bien sûr pas mal d'eau qui tomde au sol ,malgré le rideau.J'ai pri du papier toilette pour essuyer par-terre! Prévenez aussi la clientèle que sous les lits ,il y a un carton avec une colle pour les souris,si le carton est à droite sous le lit ,je peux ainsi mettre mes affaires dessous ,mais ,à gauche! Et ,en dernier moi j'aime bien mettre mes bras sous l'oreiller pour dormir ,mais il est caché

par le drap,si vous donnez une taie d'oreiller c'est mieux.Et en tout dernier sur le mur de la chambre quelque part :4 crochets pour un manteau ou autre Voilà j'ai été sincère

mais c'est pour que les gens aient envi de se sentir bien chez vous.Cordialement,F.Nakhdjavani

ps:à un de ces jours,sûrement?ET encore une idée,un truc en bois ou plastique par-terre dans la douche pour le sentiment de propreté.

Heureusement que mon séjour dans cette auberge fût de courte durée - seulement une nuit - car je crois que je n'aurais pas tenu. J'ai passé une mauvaise nuit. Nous étions 6 personnes entassés dans une même petite chambre sale. Je me suis couchée sans me changer tellement je n'ai pas osé, pareil pour les douches que je n'ai pas voulu expérimenter. Le soir, quand je suis revenue dans la chambre pour dormir, le sol était trempé, l'eau venant de la salle de bain. Comme j'avais laissé mon sac à dos par terre, j'ai retrouvé certaines de mes affaires mouillées. Et pour finir, les personnes avec qui j'ai partagé la chambre n'étaient pas des plus agréables et discrètes. Bref, une mauvaise expérience pour ma part. Je ne recommande pas cette auberge.

From my experience it was terrible. I was the only girl in the room for serveral nights and there were 6 beds which meant that most the nights i was very uncomfortable. The facilities were pretty poor and there were mice around the place and becuase there was only one key to the room it was easy for people to come in and out of your room and steal stuff - which is what happened to a few of the people in the hostel when i was there. The staff were very nice though which was good.

By Emily | The 02.28.2013

It's a horrible hostel, without free wifi internet, noisy, staff idiot and poor place! I don't advise to choose this place for staying there.

By Maria | The 02.28.2013

Ubicacion: excelente que este afuera frente a una estacion del metro, pero seamos honestos la zona no es la mejor de Paris (pero perfectamente entiendo que eso no esta en sus manos)

Servicios e instalaciones: Mis amigos, tengo la fortuna de estudiar Arquitectura gracias a DIOS y déjenme decirles que los colores que usan en el interior y los letreros de las puertas son muy malos, porfavor, este mensaje haganselo llegar con urgencia a la dueña, los colores son deprimentes y dan una mala noción del espacio, yo recomiendo pintar todas las paredes de blanco (por que el color blanco aumenta la sensación de amplitud espacial y aumenta la sensación de limpieza), los barandales negros, nada que ver, serian ideales en madera, el piso igual debería ser blanco, quiza piso laminado color blanco o imitacion madera (el piso laminado es barato y de alta resistencia) siempre procuren usar colores claros y evitar los obscuros, ¿por que creen que las casas por dentro siempre son en colores claros?, por que te producen sensaciones de tranquilidad y armonia, a diferencia de colores obscuros, deprimentes y psicodelicos, deverdad a la señora dueña mis siguientes palabras porfavor "señora, invierta en el diseño del interior de su hostal, el re-diseño cambiaria totalmente la perspectiva que muchos tienen del lugar"

Personal: Dios mio, en ningun lugar me han tratado tan bien, todos son muy amables y atentos! Gracias a Dios por la vida de todos y cada uno de los que trabajan ahí! Mis mas sinceros saludos y agradecimientos a mis amigos VENEZOLANOS JAVIER Y CARBALLO, Tipasos he!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gente como ustedes cambia la perspectica del lugar!!!!!!!!!! Señora dueña: Si tiene personal asi, NO LO DEJE IR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Limpieza: Siempre limpio, aunque de 4 noches que estube, solo 1 vez entraron a cambiarme las sabanas y la colcha, eso puede mejorar claro esta!

Mi amigo Carballo y mi amigo Javier, muchas gracias por todas sus atenciones y su amabilidad; nunca olvidare su "tranquilo hermano" :) apesar de que al inicio que llegue estaba inseguro, sus palabras siempre me trajeron confianza, Dios los bendiga amigos!!!!!!!!!!

Nice place to stay, we arrived very late at night and the fromdesk guy was waiting for us. Very clean place, a litle bit noisy but, location is perfect, 10 min walking from Sacre Coeur. Super market and litle restaurant near by. Subway stop just in front. Gare du nord just 10 min walking (night bus from CDG airport stops there). The only problem we had, (room 24 I think) was a water leak all night long.

The hostel wasn't bad for a night's stay. one big advantage was the metro stop being extremely close! however I didn't get a good night's sleep, the room was a bit chilly and the bunk bed somewhat uncomfortable. I wouldn't recommend it for comfort but for location as it's a stone's throw away from the gare du nord and you can reach the city centre in about 10-15 minutes. The staff was very friendly as well! hope this helps :)

Péssimo. Não fique nesse hostel por mais lucrativo que pareça. Eu nunca pensei que um hostel pudesse influenciar tanto na viajem como esse. Acabei não aproveitando como deveria sabendo que no fim do dia voltaria pra aquele lugar horrível.

Vou enumerar os defeitos:

1- Péssima higiene de tudo, banheiros, quartos, roupa de cama, cozinha fedia...

2- Quartos super apertados

3- Péssima localização

4- Não havia internet (dizem ter, porém era só de 9 às 18, justamente quando não há ninguém no albergue)

5- A maioria das pessoas hospedadas não parecia ser estudante ou coisa parecida, era mais uma pensão ruim do que um albergue.

6- Não tinham toalha nem pra vender

7- Só havia uma chave por quarto

8- Calefação do meu quarto não funcionava

9- é ruim demais, não vá!

The hostel was ok. According to the prices that exist in Paris was really ok. The rooms were quite clean and the staff was kind and friendly. the location is nice, because is just out of the metro station and you can reach the centre in less than 20 minutes. The one bad thing that I noticed is that there was no heating, so if you go there in the winter maybe you'll have a problem. Anyway is a nice place to stay if you are looking for sth cheap.

Lenzuola c'erano ma solo il coprimaterasso...le coperte erano senza federa ed evidentemente non appena lavate...siamo rimaste molto deluse dal nostro soggiorno per questo, per il minuscolo spazio a disposizione (ci si riusciva a malapena a muovere in 2 in una camera da 4!) e per la brutta esperienza che abbiamo avuto al nostro risveglio: il pavimento bagnato fradicio dall'umidità della notte e, di conseguenza, bagnate tutte le cose che erano per terra: scarpe e valigie con tutto il loro contenuto. Mi è rimasto asciutto solo il pigiama e poco altro che fortunatamente avevo lasciato sul letto: non dico che sia necessario risolvere il problema ma almeno avvisare gli ospiti perchè sarebbero bastate un paio d attenzioni in più da parte nostra per salvare i bagagli (ma chi poteva immaginarselo!??). è stato veramente un peccato perchè avrebbe molte potenzialità questo posto se fosse sfruttato e tenuto un po meglio (è una buonissima posizione) e anche i prezzi non sono eccessivi ma per un servizio del genere non avrei pagato nemmeno un centesimo...soprattutto per i danni che ne sono derivati.

If you are looking for most bangs for your buck, this is the place: the rooms and all the facilities are clean and the service is impeccable polite and friendly.

In addition it might be noted that the location on Barbès - Rochechouart subway station is very convenient with not only two subway lines crossing mayor but also international two train-stations (Northern and Eastern) and thus the shuttle trains to Roissy CDG airport inside 15 mins walking distance.

the neighbourhood is colourful and interesting as it seems to be a zone where three ethnic groups meet: both sub-Saharan and northern Africa as well as the Indian subcontinent seem to have set their distinctive marks in the alleys and streets close by offering both specialised and special shops and a wide array of various ethnic restaurants as well as quite a few Turkish steam baths for instance. You also have one of the Paris food and groceries open markets right out side under the elevated subway line track on days of service how ever at this price one should obviously not expect any luxury

It's cheap, yes. But there are some downsides, that has to be fixed:

- Security - there's apparently only one key for every room, and since you don't really know your roommates, you don't really know who has the key for your dorm. And it has to be said, that the neighborhood is not the safest.

- Some of the beds are broken = not good.

- There's not enough sockets.

Very disappointed with this two night stay. The location is very evil Dinesh, there are strange people who hang around the surrounding area, not at all reassuring. The hostel in it even is very dirty, not maintained, lot of dust in the rooms without forget the mousetraps which are laid in the middle of the room. There is no security. The bathroom door is poor. A shower for 26 rooms it's limit. Staff very unfriendly and not speaking a word of French (for a French auberge..). None keeps the night, anyone can go in and out as seems it. And bedding, do not talk. The sheets are "clean" more than doubtful, pillows are yellow and beds are all press. Short, for short, I would absolutely not recommend this hostel despite its attractive price.

The hostel is right in front of the metro station

what 's good because the neighborhood seems dangerous!

The guy who stays at the reception during the day is very nice

otherwise the one who stays at night!

They made a mistake with our room and with other people as well who had to sleep togheter in the same bed.

The room has 13 bed instead 12 how was saying..

THERE WAS A RAT/MOUSE INSIDE THE ROOM!!!! Disgusting...

The wi-fi works badly only from 10 a.m to 6p.m!

There's NO 'breakfast' - coffee and croissant as they were saying...

The kitchen is dirty!

That's it! I think you can not hope too much when you paying only €16 per night!

Hello Young with little money.

My stay in this hotel has been less an adventure, or leave here a series of dots indicating the precariousness of the site.

-It is located in one of the worst neighborhoods of Paris, is dangerous to exit from seven in the evening, that is not fooled, which is near the Red mill and it is a tourist area, still are not sure even in the door of hostel.

-There are mice in the rooms, including the kitchen, where the majority of people leave their food for your stay.

-Cleaning during my stay man use the same rag to clean the bathrooms and the kitchen, in that order.

-Only wifi is free from 9 to 6 in the afternoon, then you have to pay for a card that does not always work (three euros for two hours) or pay 10 cents min on a computer that usually cause failures.

-There are thefts constantly, during my stay, I was aware of the theft of a play station 3 and a DVD player, of which the hostel was not responsible. On the other hand I would like to point out that in my case the cleaning man I go in my room and I picked up the Fanny Pack, where I had the documentation and the camera, without any kind of permission.

-Only there is one key per room, i.e. the room always is open, and your belongings exposed to the hostel.

-The cloakroom where you can leave as backpacks not this cerrano keyed, goes around the world and the hostel, repeated, is not responsible for.

-The receptionists who are on the night shift are poorly educated, arrogant and offer no help either inside or outside the hostel.

-The large common room this abroad.

Finally, not be swayed by the price, which is 18 euros in any of the rooms. seek one more near the Center at a slightly more expensive price, worth.

Inadequate safety standards. The lock of the door of the room was broken: the morning I found myself locked up the Chamber with unable to open it. I had to call the reception and pass under the door the unique key to the receptionist (one key for a room of 6!). This gentleman has not deigned to look at me when I asked him if the installation standards and without addressing the head of his notes, I was told that a repairman would come without a few days.

It was the worst place I have ever seen.

What i'm looking for when i sleep in an hostel is cheap beds and good atmosphere. You can certainly find that in that hostel. The staff is nice, there is a terrace outside where you can sit and meet people. The kitchen is small and not well equiped but it exists and is always cleaned up.

That's for the good parts. For the bad ones, the rooms are quite small, old and crowded. And the area is quite shitty...

In short, cheap, good atmosphere but no comfort. I loved it!

Hostel opposite the exit of metro Barbès. Hall home, narrow corridors and rooms. Toilets on the level. The establishment is clean. The clientele is international. Sympathetic home. In the final good quality/price ratio (€18 per person for a dormitory at 4, not expensive for a July 14!) (Only cash payment). I recommend this address for a stage in Paris.

Las criticas than lei antes de ir eran muy exageradas. Lo positivo es that the Estación de metro está enfrente hay supermercado muy cerca y varias casas of accesible, el hostel tiene cocina comida y heladera. Lo negativo es no hay una sala de estar decente, solo a patio con toldo y mini una sala de TV. La cocina esta muy limpia pero eso No. is debe a los usuarios ya que vi gente limpiandola. Las rooms his Pequeñas pero bastante limpia q estuve. Internet es gratis de 9 a 18 hs, 3 euros dirty después las dos horas. No hay lockers pero if caja de seguridad. In conclusion, por el precio esta, lo ideal es q los q is quejan tanto paguen por algo mejor mas.

I've been well expected, at any time or time! The people are very nice! Perfect employees!

Only to change, I think it's too expensive by relationship to the neighborhood where it is and its facilities! And perhaps amplier schedule of free wifi.

I spent only one night and it was the worst night in a youth hostel!

the bedding is horrible, 6 in 10 m² while it should be 5, the home is not good and he does that here... and more hostel is located next to all sellers of cigarettes, tickets of metro or glasses... but 10 at foot of the sacred heart, in short don't stay down there!

In addition I have a large allergy "cloth" is like a down, the next day I had buttons on the face and on next day my face began to swell... be careful!

Super location near Sacre Coeur! Cheapest found! Decent kitchen and staff, but... some types argue on the street outside all night, door latches are falling off, only one key per dorm (for last in man)-a little maintenance would go a long way! Need 2-3 computers! Had to walk to and pay for an Internet Café! Shower booths are so narrow, most cannot bend down to pick up the soap! Still Recommended!

I just spent a night. Each room with its own bath room (and an other bathroom is available in the corridor) A small good very good hostel market and open 24 hours.

Big problem, it's too hot, the curtain closes poorly. but that is all the station of metro despite the difficult neighbourhood (many vendors in the street vending) and noisy. However, we can buy a good small sandwich for cheap in this district (more there are of the world, it is good) I will return despite just for sleeping, but I would not vacation here like...

I am confident with the equipment and the circumstance. Cuisinnier and the metro station is close. The price is as well.

I had to stay the 2 nights in 2 different dorms. The first was on top of a three-high staple bed, difficult to get in, and dangerous to fall out off the bed. And very warm. The second night I was given a bed in a 5-p dorm whereas I booked a 4-p dorm. That room was overcrowded, no. room for luggage and unhealthy warm. Happily after inquiring I got a 4-bedded dorm, that was much better and not so cramped. But it is a noisy location. The staff is very helpfull and friendly, there is a kitchen to use, and the metro is exactly opposite. For me the reason to stay here was that I could put my bicycle inside the small short, and it is very cheap.

We spent 3 nights in the hostel in may 2012. We were not at all reassured in the view of the comments before arriving.

I would like to reassure you, you can book without fear. very good price/quality ratio.

Ideally located to visit paris, because we are in the middle of all subway lines. the neighborhood is certainly, a little evil, but we were 6 girls, and we had no fear because the hostel is located opposite the mouth of metro. at night the area is calm and there is no one in the streets unlike the day.

There is no rat, the rooms are clean, we had water warm the quilts do not feel the urine. the outer Court is very pleasant and calm. the kitchen area is super. . very nice staff. and the decoration is modern.

think by contrast take a multiprise because there is only only one take per room, and a bathroom mat.

ENJOY YOUR STAY!

I only stayed for one night, and my brother for two. We only needed somewhere to sleep, and I think that this place fulfilled our needs. We had a room for three people, and the guy in our room stumbled in very late and woke up very early, so that was kind of annoying though.

And if you read the comments and think about that this is a hostel, you bring your own sheats and towels, problem solved. With that said, this hostel was an excellent and cheap choice. Somewhat dirty and shabby, but the staff were GREAT!

The hostel is in a problematic area. The room was very small and didn't have conditions for 5 persons. They don't give towels and they don´t notify the customers about. it Also there are only one sheet in the bed and no pillowcase. You have to cover yourself with a blanket.

The kitchen was always dirty, there were always dishes in the sink and if you needed something to do your food you have to clean the mess that the other customers did.

Also there was no tableware for every customers. We had to buy disposable plates and cutlery so we could eat. Although this has to do with the education of the other client, the managment staff did nothing about it. The common areas are very small and only fit there 4 or 5 persons.

For me and my group, the only aspect positive in the 5 days we stayed in the hostel, was the location.The hostel is near a metro station which take us to the center of the city.

We won't stay there again for sure.

Neighborhood cregnosse, and clients as: an alcoholic, dirty people... A TV that doesn't work not and bathroom very dirty. I paid 17 euros at night while others only paid 15 euros and more were in 3 beds rooms! people have no respect: noise until midnight in the brief House I would advise against this hostel for everyone

Super well situate, the cartier seems hot, but in the end it's like anything in life... do not rely on first impression, it is rarely good.

The hostel was in fact quite ok. If you set no claims, it is maximum for a night in order. The bad thing is that this hostel in a really lousy district. The shower is very clean, but unfortunately the "blankets" were versift. At night, it is a bit noisy. But it has a metro station right outside the hotel and is thus well in the center of Paris. Although everything is a cheap variant there very closely, but as I said, for a night.

I stayed with a friend for 3 nights at this hostel and we can safely say that it was our worst experience in a hostel. They had horrible organization which resulted in us changing rooms on the first and second morning. Moreover they seem to overcrowd the room by adding an extra flimsy bed into a room that was originally for 2-3 people. After we were switched to a room with a shower (which was our original booking), the maximum temperature of the water still left us feeling chilly. As if these weren't enough, the staff were not exactly the friendliest people either. In terms of location, the nearest metro station would be 'Barbes-Rochecourt' which is not the best neighbourhood in the city (this is verified with shocked expressions of my Parisienne friends). However the one good thing about the hostel is that the metro was directly opposite which meant that once getting out of the station it was a mere 1 minute walk back. This experience has put us off hostels for a while and unless you are looking for a harsh experience I would not recommend you book it.

WORST HOTEL OF MY LIFE!

The worst Hostel in my life! Even in poor countries as in Vilnius is comparable to a Palace!

Friend hotel's = - cold water - not heating - shabby home and staff unpleasant, rude, step commercial and learned barely speak French - horrible, dirty, poorly insulated room - no intimacy - flights in rooms - as a key while it is 3 in the House....

By mon cul | The 02.12.2012

Good price-quality ratio.

However, the beds on two floors (3 bunk beds) are quite DESAGREABLES and DESADAPTES for adults. With 50 cm of height between your bed and at the top, you're guaranteed you knocking the front a maximum of times on the cu edge reads at the top and cannot read sitting on the bed.

More soon pretty much clean.

Staff quite courtoi.

The hostel is very well located, just at the exit of the Metro barbès, therefore ready the stations North and austerlitz. The staff is very friendly and very varied customer. However, the place clearly lack of maintenance: there was a pipeline with a large water leak in the House (a cloth used to cover...) and not light in sanitary. The dirty dishes and outdated commodities dragging in the kitchen: the last day, there are cockroaches in the sink and fridge e!. The Court is nice as a place to eat, but there is no space for shelter during rain....

I wouldn't recommend it can't: it was loud, the triple beds meant that there was almost no space in the room, and on top of that not all meant to be en-suite rooms are actually in suite: some provide you only with toilet, and no bathroom. All windows of the hostel overlook the courtyard, so it's at night, hard and loud to get some sleep. In addition, I booked a 4 - bed room but it turned out that due to their messy I was allocated to bookkeeping was 7 - bed room for the same price. I saw some cockroaches in the kitchen.

This is the worst hostel where I had the misfortune to stay. Located in a relatively dangerous Paris (they are the smuggling of cigarettes in the face...), a band of thugs tore me my bag with a razor blade nearby. Cockroaches by scores in the kitchen, human rats eat food you leave there, we've missed during 2 days, a single key by Chamber which complicates much the vas and forth and security (it embarré me in my room accidentally one day...) and so on. Hostel Paris cheapest and certainly the most poor. We meet all of the cool people...

I have booked in the Friend's Hostel before reading all the negative comments, illogical tell me - you, either... I started to read all your comments and I began to be very afraid, but then very very afraid. Talked about me a little on district, I am a young woman travelling alone... I let you imagine my state of mind... And then frightening this bed story given to someone else, is it not? I therefore, about a week before my arrival, called the hotel to make sure that my reservation was well taken into account, that I was certified. And result: I have yet had no problem, when I returned to the hotel, a Friday evening, about 23: 30 the street was empty, at the exit of the subway, I just had to walk 3 minutes to reach the hotel, the home was the most charming, despite a slight problem of language, and I had a bit of difficult to find my room but staff eventually kindly lead me there. Good surprise, instead of a House that I had to share 6, I found myself with only 3 people sharing my dormitory. Bathroom was rather clean and the bed also. Only concerns at the level of it, I have to take the only bed that was left, was in height, and being small, I had trouble to used me to scale, but it is quickly. In conclusion, I would say that there is no fear to be reserved in this hotel, it just well think to send the security code of your credit card with which you have made your booking with your booking number and think to arrive to their which you said happen. If you arrive later than expected, think to call before the time you said or for if you do not want to see your bed to someone of another ' 3 = I wish you a good stay!
