Nice place to stay in Paris. May not be super close to the main tourist locations, but that just adds to the fun experience of going to Paris. They have 2 super close metro entrances, you just need to get a ticket and Paris is yours. The place was nice and clean. Perfect place to get your hot shower after a day's worth of exploring the city.
Traveling solo made me a bit nervous, but the co-ed rooms are no problem and never felt in danger, really.
I recommend this place, for budget traveling and the vibes. Staff were attentive and I think most were Fr/Eng bilinguals. By the end one of 'em spoke to me in spanish so communication-wise, they cover their basics. :)
