I was going to put this is the bad file, but considering that its Paris and we all know there are very few good hostels in Paris, I decided to rate it more in different.

Good Points:

-Location is great. Right in the middle of the Latin Quarter with bars and restraunts everywhere. Easy subway access...
- Clean
- Breakfast is free and decent..
- Everyone speaks English
- Its in PARIS!


Bad points-
- Lock out is from 11-4 for no obvious reason. This is a drag if you want to sleep in or just lounge around a bit..
- Hot water is rare..very rare
- You have to rent sheets
- The rebooking policy is a pain in the arse..

If youre looking for a place in Paris and youre having a hard time, this one is at least reliable...
