It was horrible, I do not recommend anyone to come to this hostel. The worst part was with the bed bugs. And the sheets and everything in room was dirty, also the toilets. DO NOT GO!!

I can't give 0 because it's not giving me the option; outside the building someone try to assault me, then i went to sleep the first night at 7 pm because i was so tired for walking all Paris since there were no subways due to the strike, and at 10 pm pf the same night i woke up and i had a lot of bites from little animals that were on the bed, it was so disgusting, i couldn't stay, i had to to go, and i went to another hostel, just one of the people at the reception is cool, the others they don't care about you

Worst hostel I’ve ever stayed at. Wouldn’t recommend this to anybody. If anything I’d say try anywhere but here.. over charged and a waste of money..

The place Just 100m fro the metro which makes it very convenient. And few of the attractions are close by like Sacré-Cœur.

I went in Jacobss Inn Hostel with my friends and we totally enjoyed our days there.

You can easily reach the center of Paris from the hostel because the train station and the buss were very near.The stuff was great as well...Venezuelans workers were very helpful and funny as well.The only problem was the smell of the hostel but for the price was totally worth it.

I totally recommend Jacobss Inn hostel

The hostel itself is nice and affordable. Stock standard hostel which is nice. The only problem( which isn’t the hostel)I had with it was the location. It is right next to the train station but there are always guys just hanging around the street.

We were charged 2€ extra / bed despite prior booking on hostelsclub.com and even worse, they had only a croissant + coffee for breakfast.

Staff(Adnan) was awesome. He helped us to plan how to visit Paris efficiently within one day :) He was very nice, well mannered. They have resolved each query before arriving to Paris. I definitely recommend this hostel to others.

Hostel is good located in Paris but is surrounded by drugdealers. Despite other reviews, I found quite clean. Pros: price, locomotion, . Cons: neighborhood, size of bedrooms, responsive but delayed staff

Bad. I came home with many insect bites and fleas. the day before a girl had been stung, the staff had provided a special cleaning but without changing sheets and mattresses. A bad experience, I am still scratching. To be denounced. Hostel not given anything, kitchen, lounge area etc. I do not recommend it.

I dont recommend this hostel to anyone, they dont change the bed sheets when the new people come, and its just a tip of the iceberg.

It will be better for you to pay 3€ more per night and find something else, trust me..

The most terrible hostel I've ever stayed at! We booked a room for 4 persons with bathroom. The room was tiny. As tiny as if one person stays in the room, there is no space for others, but in beds. Shower is small too, water comes from it to the room. The room very dirty itself, it seems nobody cleaned it for ages! The same all toilets and shared shower (one (!) on the floor!)

I would highly NOT recommend this hostel for staying!

I am very disconforme with my stay in FriendsHostel. I have not been sleep any night. because not only to the constant and unbearable noise of the heating also because my body was all dive by bugs bed. The solution for that was to change the room to ground floor because said me that is the best and a cream for stings. so this problem is already know. my question is, who will pay me a doctor, my pain and my skin?

We stayed for four nights. The hostel is full of bedbugs, the staff does not inform guests about that. Lots of guests are complainig about stitches. And the bedbugs even enter suitcases etc., so you'll take them home. Beds are partly broken and certainly not clean. Blankets are sometimes not provided, cause there are not enough. Kitchen and meeting room are greasy, you don't want to eat there.

The staff was very gentle but the location is not safe, many immigrants as pickpockets waiting in the corners, harassing girls... it is not safe for girls to stay there, maybe for boys but for girls no way. Despite all said it is a very central place, sacre coeur, montmartre street and dalida bust are very close to this place and has a train stop in front of it so it is very convenient but as I said what ruins this place are the pickpockets, you won't see Parisians around this places.

The hostel is greatly located right near the metro station. It is cheap. But there no blankets and normal pillows there. Internet is not free from 6pm (when most of the guests need it after a day of walking) and there were bugs in the blanket on opened above me, so I got bitten and had red spots all over my body :( may be it was just unlucky day. But i didn't like it

It was a tiny place, unexpectedly small, but it worked. The beds weren't very comfortable, and the pillows had basically no padding which makes for an aching neck in the morning.

Well, it is located in one of the worst neighbourhoods i have ever seen. On the other side it is quite near to the center (by metro). I didnt stay long and only needed it for a sleep so it was ok.. but if you are not a group so you can have the whole room for yourselves you will be bothered by how loud people in crowds can get....

Rooms are very small, our room was smelling bad when we entered because there where something like vomit at the curtain. Localization is very good - not far from city center, peoples around hostel look scared but don't do anything for you.
