It's a bit different at first because it's a bar but then there's an outside area that you pass to get to the rooms. The room for 8 people was clean, the bunk beds were a bit shaky, did not feel super sturdy climbing up but definitely do-able. One con was the locker sizes to put your stuff are really slim & personally my important bag did not fit so I just had to lock it & leave it on the bed in hopes that nothing would happen. Also this hostel was definitely a more older crowd vibe- everyone in the 8- person shared room was in bed by 8-10pm every night, so if you're looking for a younger crowd this might not be your first choice. But overall it was a solid hostel for 3 nights, everyone was respectful & we appreciated our stay here & thought the location was perfect to get around the city it's next to public transportation which is super convenient. Thank you for having us.

Highly recommend Mije for your stay in Paris- this was my first time in a hostel and it was…read morewonderful! I began my 3-month solo trip backpacking through Europe here. The staff is very helpful and accommodating (continuing to extend my stay for a week instead of a few days because I enjoyed it so much), they speak English and French. It was very clean in the shared dorm room everyone was respectful and quiet. They clean every day and put fresh linens on your bed. The beds are a very minimal, but practical the pillow is long and you can fold over itself for more support. I didn't even feel the need to use my silk bed liner (cleanliness is huge for me) I just slept directly in the sheets. There are only USB plugs in the main room - you can bring a European power strip or charger to plug in the room there are a couple power outlets per room. Wifi is weak in the room but possible...in the common room it is great. Breakfast is a piece of bread, a pastry, coffee and OJ. They offer dry cereal and yogurt, but no bowls. Breakfast is from 7-10 (must be finished by 10- get there my 9:45 at the latest.) There is a small marketplace around the corner for additional food and cafes are open anytime of the day or night. The location is great close to all of the major attractions you will want to see in Paris. I walked around the first 2 days, but using the Metro is very helpful (and saves your feet). Buy the 10-ticket book and save 5€, you will use them! As a solo female traveler I felt very safe in this area at night walking by myself or with friends. Everyone in Paris has been very friendly and helpful with directions. When you come to Paris you must stay at Mije- I will most certainly stay here each time I am in Paris!

I've read some pretty concerning reviews before coming here and thought the worst but was glad to find out that it was a decent hostel in an unassuming neighborhood, with reasonable amenities, and everything you need in shouting distance. The Generator is located in a neighborhood in the 10th that I'd not had the pleasure of going to in my 10 years visiting France, but once I'd gotten used to it- it was a nice calm little place. The neighborhood surrounding the Generator heading into the 19th though - isn't safe for young or new travelers. Hoards of homeless people are littered under the bridge, and it can be a pretty chaotic neighborhood. The people themselves are pleasant enough, just stay to yourself. The drinks were heavy, the bar downstairs was nice and lively. The shower rooms, toilets, and beds were what you can expect from a constantly rotating line of people. It's not top notch, it's not bottom rung. The cleaning staff was in daily, maintenance came directly both times I requested (for the shower, and a clogged toilet). The maintenance crew for the toilet came a total of 4 times. I stayed in a room of 8, Most of the ladies were great, but some need reminders when checking in about how to be kind in a large hostel room. Some came in at 2a when I needed to rise at 5a and made a tremendous amount of noise. Be mindful when booking, or reviewing that you're staying in a hostel with an AMAZING amount of turn over, they may need more staff, but what they do have is keeping up quite well.

I stayed here…read moreduring my trip to Paris and absolutely loved the welcoming, slightly eclectic vibe--it felt more like staying in a stylish friend's pied-à-terre than a typical hotel. The location couldn't be better: just a quick stroll to the Eiffel Tower and incredibly convenient to public transportation, which made getting around the city a breeze. What really stood out, though, was the staff. Every single person I interacted with was over-the-top friendly and genuinely helpful, from check-in to recommendations for nearby cafés. It's the kind of hospitality that makes you feel instantly at ease, even in a city as grand and bustling as Paris. If you're looking for a place with personality, comfort, and a truly kind team behind it, this little gem is hard to beat.

I liked a lot of things about Oops Hostel: -fabulous neighborhood. It is close to most of Paris's touristy attractions, lined with amazing cafes to eat at, and it is 0 on the sketchy meter which is really important to me as a single female. -beautifully decorated and designed (I love just looking at it) -great staff -free breakfast that is decent- the coffee is mediocre but you also get croissants and bread which isn't too bad for a free breakfast -no lockers in rooms but lockers in the hallways which is convenient enough for me -VERY quiet. there is no bar attached to this hostel and they have a strict quiet policy at night. Invaluable for those who desperately need beauty sleep. This is not the place for you if you are the party-party type of traveler, it caters to a more mature crowd and most people here keep to themselves so it's not like you'll meet your new best friend here. I have to say the location and the quietness was what had me at hello- most hostels in Paris are in the sketch parts of town near Gare du Nord and that is why they are 5-10 euros cheaper a night.

Where to stay for cheap?…read more 30E in the peak season 23E in the off season PER NIGHT. seriously folks? Apparently this hostel was voted best in the world a few years back. By far the cleanest, most modern hostel I've ever stayed in. Free wifi, elevator, and co-ed rooms make for all the right ingredients. Easily accessible from the Gobelins or the place d'italia metros. Literally in between the two. What grinds my gears though is that from 11am-4pm you my friend are locked out. BUT- seriously, who hangs out in the hostel during the day anyway. If youre in Paris, you should be having the time of your life. The times I was ridiculously hung over and slept in til 2 they didnt bother me. Perhaps it was the smell of liquor. They furnish sheets, and a pillow which are changed daily. 1E for the towel, bring your own as theirs are crap. There is a hair dryer in the bathroom. The kichenette has tons of little things to help you get by if youre so inclined to cook, and there is a supermarche right across the street. Great little neighborhood with tons of bars as well.

The woman at redemption was friendly, helpful and an absolute delight. She welcomed us after a brutal 8 hour flight and then 2 hours at customs- so we were exhausted, but she made the whole experience better. They have a great garden area that we were invited to sit an enjoy the space. It's tucked away, from the busy streets. So it's beautiful, quiet, but right in the center of all the fun. We didn't eat at the restaurant- but brought food in during their off hours and they were so incredibly nice to help us with silverware, plates, etc. when we weren't even eating their food! We had a wonderful experience at this hotel, wish we would've stayed longer here. Great location - next to a Bus Station and a delicious Patisserie.

I met people from all over the world in this one place. Welly, one of the workers here, was an amazing employee who brought such fun events to the guests who stayed here. Two of the nights he guided a bunch of people from the hostel to a club in Paris and I cannot believe how much fun I had. He was very friendly and helpful whenever I needed recommendations for anything. There was always something happening every night, whether it was wine and cheese night or a beer pong competition or going out with other people from the hostel. I have made lifelong friends here. The place was a very clean stay and it was my first time doing a co-ed room so I was a bit scared but everyone was so friendly and respectful of each others spaces. When I go back to Paris, I will definitely be staying here again. I have told all of my friends and family about it and I'm so excited for when I come next!!!!!!!! Added: based off of pictures I've seen from reviews previous - the hostel does not look as outdated anymore. It seems as though they have had renovations and the common area downstairs is very clean and new looking and does not look like the pictures posted from over 5 years ago

During my recent return to Paris, I decided to stay at The Peoples Hostel (Les Piaules) because I…read morehad a great time back in 2016. However, I decided to reserve a private room instead of a dorm room because I wanted more privacy while still getting the hostel experience. I highly recommend booking a private room if it's within your travel budget instead of the dorm room, especially if you're traveling solo or as a couple. Trust me! After a long day exploring Paris' many historical sites and museums and riding around the city in crowded metro trains, you'll want privacy to relax, rest, and unwind without strangers coming in and out of the room throughout the day and night. If you have the extra money to splurge a bit, I recommend booking a private room. Overall, the hostel hasn't changed much, if at all, since 2016, except for a name change, but it's still charming, an excellent place for all travelers, and close to many restaurants, stores, and metro stations. If you're a bit older (40-50+) and prefer a more relaxed and quiet hostel experience, you can find that at Les Piaules, but it will be loud on the nights scheduled for events like karaoke (Monday) and music provided by a local DJ (Friday and Saturday). The hostel (bar/lounge) is quiet throughout the day and allows for a great a working space with free wifi throughout the hostel, including wifi in your room. The hostel staff is friendly and helpful if you have questions about Paris. You can also purchase breakfast in the morning at the bar. There is a Franprix store a few minutes walk from the hostel, so you can get water, food, and snacks to bring back to your room. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, there is a farmers market steps from the hostels' front door. I'd stay here again if and when I return to Paris because it's reasonably priced and close to many stores and restaurants, including a laundromat (10-minute walk) in the local neighborhood. I also enjoy the vibe of the hostel. Whether traveling solo or with friends, I think you'll fall in love with this hostel. It has a comfortable, friendly, and safe vibe with a great social space (bar) to meet other travelers. Safe travels!

I would not say I was a fan of my stay at Les Piaules, though I also don't have any serious…read morecomplaints. Here is my opinion: Pros: - clean - friendly staff - relatively convenient location (Les Piaules is sandwiched between two metro stations, which puts you at a less than 30 minute commute for most places in Paris that are north of the Seine) Con: - rooms are small and I found it awkward when I had to sort things in my luggage as other people would then have no room to walk - rooms that are towards the far end of the hall are noisy at night because of the Hostel's proximity to the main street I would say that the right living quarters is what diminished my experience the most as I found it inconvenient to move around in the room. Final note -- it seems that the neighborhood is somewhat of a ethnic enclave for the Chinese community in France as there are large Chinese grocery markets, restaurants, and more in the area. This was quite a delight for me as I was able to get authentic Chinese dumplings nearby when I got tired of the local French cuisine.

Great place to stay if you are on budget, and in Paris for the first time. It truly helps the experience tremendously. The metro is literally a block down, AND it's the line you need to get to the Louvre. What else do you need? We had a private double room (a bunk) facing the courtyard, shower/sink in the room, bathroom next door - somewhat strange, but it's a hostel, so I don't have high expectations. There's a also a room with paid lockers to store you stuff as well if you end up sharing with a few people A couple things that take away a star, not everyone can stay here because there's an age limit, and there's also a curfew (1am). Otherwise, no better place to stay cheap and close to all the action. Book waaaay in advance (winter/fall) if you want to stay here in the spring/summer.

I think I brought a lot of my American prejudices to the breakfast experience. It's a very simple affair w/ coffee, juice, a pastry, and a segment of baguette, rather than the giant pancakes-and-sausage affair I'm used to. Also, when they say breakfast is from 7am-10am, they really mean it! 10am is not some kind of "last seated" time--they really expect you to be done and out of there by 10. We sauntered in at 9:57a and had to really wolf it down before they closed. Again, probably my own misapprehension.
