Everything was nice, staff let us leave stuff because check in starts only at 16:00, they have bar in first floor, but if u r living in hostel you are allowed drink your own drinks in bar, so that was very nice 💜 For me bed was good I slept well, for my bf a bit too small, in hostel u can rent towels for few euros.

That check in is only at 16:00 and super dark room. Space is not big and dark walls all time looked that we missing light, so If hostel want mach vibe like downstairs could paint walls lighter green like is painted bar walls I think it will look way better and more cozy and more light. But overall is everything was good, nice stay 💜

It's my third time staying here, I love this place. Location is good to explore Lyon, and close to the train stations to arrive and leave the city. The area is safe for solo travellers. Rooms are comfortable and spacious. The bar is a great place to spend some time or get some work done if you need to. Overall, it is a great place to stay.

This time my room was on the 3rd floor with no elevator, a bit tricky if you travel with big luggage. Also, it would have been nice to have AC in the rooms, although there are plenty of fans that help to deal with the summer heat. I would have also loved to have the possibility to have dinner at the bar and that it remains open until later. Beds could be updated or at least have some curtains for more privacy.

The Staff is Amazing! Everyone was so welcoming and helpful:) we arrived late on Bastille Day shortly before the fireworks( we were just driving back to Germany from Barcelona and had no idea there would be no parking in the entire city) but the staff even the Bartender gave us good ideas & eventually we got to park right across the street once people left the fireworks show. Breakfast was amazing and filling, drinks ( local Verbana Liquor) in the evening were great and provided fans and opening windows made for comfortable sleeping even in July heat

There is a little maintenance needed in the shower but nothing outside the norm in a hostel in constant use. We didn’t walk far since we were just pausing on a longer trip, but I can see how some people say walk to center is too far ( and for 2 women that might not be preferred at night) but the distance isn’t bad by day if your enjoying the walk along the way

Private quiet room in a hostel situated in a lively neighborhood in the center of Lyon, walking distance to all services, restaurants, bicycle stations. Beds and pillows are super comfy, we doozed off after 5 mins, never slept this well in a hostel before. Staffs are friendly and smiley. We had a nice stay and would recommend to other travellers.

check in from 16:00 seems a bit late, would be nice to be able to check in from 12:00-14:00 like most other facilities

It was amazing how helpful and friendly the staff was. I was really impressed by the efforts they made to ensure that I had everything I needed to make my stay comfortable. The location is good, I arrived at Lyon Perrache bus station, and it took me about 25-30 mins to walk to the hotel. The room was clean, and affordable for a short stay. There is a cafe on the ground floor, which is quite cozy. Also there are a lot of restaurants within a few hundred meters.

The lighting in the rooms was not so good. The shower area was also a little small.

The bedsheets where very soft and good quality, and the locker space you get to store your personal belongings is really big, i could fit my entire carry on, a backpack and a tote bag with no problem, they do make a loud noise when you open them, but its not a big deal, while the rooms are small, i didn’t find a problem with it since everyone was mindful and respectful

The place was good but It needs more than 1 toilet per floor. And if your room is on the upper levels, prepare to carry your suitcase trough the stairs. Elevators are not very common in here

The position is good for visiting the city, at walkable distance. Tube station is 5 minutes walking. Bus and tram stations are also available. The breakfast is "essential" but of good level (European style). The common area at the entrance is confortable

The moquette is ruined by the use of chemicals during the pandemic era. Should be changed. Also walls need some renovation (unless it is a choice of the manager) The block where the hotel is situated gives a touch of insecurity, at night in particular

The staff was amazing. Really helpful at all times. Some had a little hsrd time speaking english but mostly were fine. Really recommend it for all the international travelers! The beds are good but not very private.

The toilet was a bit exactly very clean. It was ok to use but could be a little bit cleaner. The showers were really good, to be honest. The most affordable coffee option was not enough for me.

It was nice and close to the river. Very good front of house staff. Nice cafe/seating area. The wifi was good and the hostel gave me good vibes.

The bathrroms left much to be desired. Small rooms with not enough fans, or air conditioners. More cooling power is needed in summer as it gets bloody hot. The beds were a little dirty which was gross. Very important to note that one of the staff working there does not wear deoderants and leaves a foul stench in whatever room he is cleaning/attending. He also decided to sit in my room in the middle of the day on his phone and eating his lunch (the rooms have a strict no food or drink policy), and stink up the area for close to an hour before moving on. They need to have e a chat to this man

I enjoyed my stay. First of all the staff were friendly, listening carefully, answering any question in a professional and polite way. I felt as if I was at a friend's house. I was in a girl room dormitory : shared room with 6 other women and the bed were comfy, well managed to avoid making too much sound if ever one of us needed to wake up earlier, take a shower at night and all. The WiFi was working good and the showers were all clean. We had a little hair conditioning that saved us during the hot warm night ! Even tho we were 6, I felt safe with the other girls and our locked room. The 5 other girls were minding their business, nothing was bothering : not a sound, so respectful of our private zones !

Nothing ! Everything was kind of nice for an affordable price ;)
