Nice location and staff were helpful. Biggest issue was the lack of a lift, meaning we had to take our luggage up several flights of stairs.

Helpful staff, close to most attractions. A bit squeezy room. No kitchen facilities or anywhere for clients who didn't buy meals/drinks in house. 4th floor was challenging without lift - lucky I was fit!!

Bad feeling

The staff attitude is rude. The roommate is so special. The facilities in kitchen is broken. Am supposed to stay 3 days, but I left and found other place as I got much spots and itching at morning. I am travelling 2 months in Europe, there is the worst I met. However, hostel in France is always like this. Feeling bad and the staff didn't wanted to help you.

Really cool place with a few small issues

The hostel was super hip which I loved! The workers were really nice overall and it was walking distance to a lot of things in Lyon. My main issues were.. 1- that my second night there I woke up and a middle aged man was asleep in the bunk beneath me (I was in a women's only dorm) so that was very shocking and made me feel less safe. 2) the bathrooms were not regularly cleaned (or at least didn't appear to be). Overall, it was a good place to stay and I'm happy I booked it. I let the staff know about the man in my room so hopefully no other women have to experience that.

I was welcomed very warmly by the staff, and in the basement/lounge and had a great evening with other guests who had been total strangers beforehand! Everything was clean and felt fresh.

Poor example of French hosteling

Definitely not the best attempt of regeneration of a so-called "bad" area of Lyon. Nearby bars like the othersidebridge are the typical example of French strenght... This hostel will only reinforce all the bad stereotypes foreigners have about them: rude, condescending, arrogant (lacking of knowlegde and experience). The hostel is located above a well run bar/cafe, but the most shocking thing was the contrast between the local attending the bar and potential question about the room allocation system. When asking a female QC staff member why there is a high proportion of P.O.C in a single room while the other locations not, and downstairs is big contrast, no direct answer and always turning around the bush, management was also disdainful. Answer was: just a coincidence. A coincidence? so why can you hear that staff from far away making jokes about other third world countries. Consumers, there are rights in France: and this was quite obvious when the male receptionist realized i was acquainted with the city and local national... he went straight to professional behaviour.

Visit old Lyon

New hostel with great restaurant down below. 7 stops by tram from the train and bus station. The rooms were a little tight.
