I came to Paris for a few days to escape the hectic everyday life in Germany. At The People Hostel I found my home for this period of time and I could hardly have found a better place in all of Paris. I was warmly welcomed, even in a little German, and as someone who speaks very little French, I had absolutely no communication difficulties at all, as you are in very capable hands here even as an English speaker.
The rooms, sanitary facilities and the rest of the hostel were in top condition and as well maintained as you could wish for. I was mostly out and about in the city, but the hostel offers a lot of nice common areas, including a patio with a view over Paris, which I often enjoyed in the mornings.
I didn't have people in the room with me all the time, but when I did, they were nice people from all over the world to talk to and have interesting conversation exchanges with.
I was and am delighted with The People Hostel and would definitely choose it again if I am looking for a reasonably priced, clean and welcoming place to stay.
