Summary: I felt very safe and the reception is open 24/7. I brought my own disinfectant kit whenever I used provided utilities such as sinks, toilets, and shower knobs.
There's was a locker underneath my bed, I had no idea to bring my own lock so I bought one at the desk. Very english friendly in a language barrier environment.
I also didnt know it was a bar, but I didn't mind the partying that occurred the floor below.
Highly recommendable for Night life and budget trips.
At Night, the canal outside looks beautiful.

Summary: The bed needed an upgrade was a bit lumpy. When I stayed here 2 years ago the bed was wonderful that is why I returned but I didn't get as lucky this time.

Summary: 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.

Summary: 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 .

Summary: 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.
