Hostel Very Bad

The rooms smell bad, there is no hand sanitizer, there is no hairdryer, the room is very, very cold, the heating does not work, and the hostel does not have a refrigerator to store food, a very bad place I do not recommend, the only good thing is that Mrs. Rose the receptionist is a very nice person.

Right next to parks and canals as well as being near small, cute and cool cafes and restaurants. Because its right near the canal at night there can be shady characters, but it's not dangerous. It can be cery loud at night because of the bar so its a perfect party hostel and not really one for chilling while traveling.

No apology

The room was comfortable, but some of the receptionists and a restaurant manager were so rude. I stayed 7 nights total. When I added one more night after the 4 nights of stay, I accidentally clicked on 6 mixed room reservation instead of the same 6 women's room I Stayed for 4 nights. I ran down to ask if I could change to the same room, instead of checking out and go to a different room, a receptionist asked for the additional 17 Euro. I just left the reception area. Two days later, the same woman accompanied a security guard, abruptly opened the room door while we were talking about America vs. France with a room mate, saying "it was reported someone speaking English woman was screaming in this room". I asked, "did you hear my voice from outside?" After she Knew she got the wrong room, she even did not apologize for being rude. Another issue was a manager, came to me when I was eating Chicken avocado sandwich I ordered, "You are eating somebody else's food." I knew that was my order because it was not the first time I ordered the chicken menu. I did not respond while I was eating and after I finished eating, I walked to the manager. "What happened? It was my order." The manager never said sorry for what he did to the restaurant customer. He just walked into the kitchen. He knew I left a big tip for the waiter that I did not know the tips were shared. After I found out the tips were shared, No Tips! I don't think I want to give the tips even a penny to some people rude .

The hostel stay has been incredibly disappointing, with negative experiences across all areas. The most troubling aspect is the extremely rude behavior of both the management and reception staff. Their lack of professionalism and unhelpful attitude has made the stay unpleasant for many guests. Basic customer service is ignored, and any issues raised are met with hostility rather than solutions. The overall environment is unwelcoming, making it difficult to feel comfortable or enjoy the stay. This lack of respect and care for guests reflects poorly on the hostel, and serious improvements are needed, especially in staff behavior.

YAT YI

The hostel room is spacious, bed with curtains, a storage underneath the bed but it requires a large lock to lock, a normal padlock can't lock it. But there is a bar downstairs which opens until 3 am. I had no problem with the noise, but others in the room could not sleep at night due to the noise and had to close the window. There are no fans or air conditioning in the room. Closing the window in the summer in Paris meant suffocation and hot to me, and that made me unable to sleep. The condition in the toilet/bathroom is OK. But some showers were blocked or had boiling water.
