Pretty good hostel, clean overall and close to the metro. The room smelled absolutely terrible though. Rooms are very small and cramped, and get hot even in November.

One of my favourite hostels in Paris. Have stayed here number of times and never disappoints. Location, room and roof top are the highlights. I like how it's close to the station, supermarket next door and plenty of eateries near by.

Really conveniently located, well connected to key areas of Paris and some great food options nearby. Staff were really helpful and the quality of accomodation was great. Beds were comfy and facilities were clean and well maintained. Despite being on a busy roundabout, it was quiet inside. Would definitely stay here again.

The bed wasn't very comfortable, and the pillows were terrible. There was only one towel and no bathroom mat. It wasn't a very comfortable room, but the location was excellent, right in front of the metro. And from my room, I could see the tip of the Eiffel Tower.

Generally okay to stay for short night. There was a homeless who try to get in when I was check in. It made me feel this hostel may not be safe enough. The bed was fine , the room temperature was okay but a bit dry air. Toilet was okay. Nothing was too much dirty.

I checked-in late around 23:30 tired from a long trip and my bed wasn’t done, was dirty of previous guest. I requested another room as was the fastest solution but the night receptionist told me that they were fully booked, therefore, arranged the bed for me as fast as he could. On the other hand, there was an elder gentleman 70+ in the room with urine issues and all the room was smelling really badly and next day I found the diapers in the floor next to my locker. The staff of the hotel was aware but the explanation after I checked out was that they couldn’t moved him or us and just apologise for the inconvenience. The sound of the air con in the room was noisy and was difficult to have a good sleep with all this issues. I like staying at The People Nation, is my favourite in Paris but this time it was not the experience I was looking for.
