short review removed:
A small hostel with a few rooms located a kilometer from the train station and 2 blocks from a metro stop. It's four floors up and there's no lift/elevator. It's definitely a bit of a climb. And if you like French people you'll love this hostel. It's been overrun with the French ever since it got a mention in a French guidebook. There isn't a common area.
As far as cleanliness, the rooms are nice but the bathrooms aren't so great. There are two bathrooms and during busy times you have to wait to use them. There are lockers in the rooms (you supply the lock) but there are more beds than lockers so you may not be able to get one. Smoking is allowed in the hall so the whole place can get a little smoky sometimes.
