The room was really nice, it had more space than I expected. The bed Was comfortably and the temperature with the blanket was enough. There was also extra blanket. Bathroom seemed clean. The reception helped me a lot with questions and my requests as well. The breakfast was nice with coffee, orange juice, croissant, bread and jam/honey/butter options. It is 2 minutes to Sacré-Cœur stairs and very close to subway also. I would come and stay again for a next trip. Thank you.

The People Paris Belleville, hotel in Paris

Featuring free WiFi and a sun terrace, The People Paris Belleville is a hostel in Paris close to the popular area of Belleville. Guests can enjoy a drink at the on-site snack bar.

Nothing. Got there before midnight. Luggage had to be put in a closet in the basement. Bed was in a fire hazardous room with 8 or 12 cramped beds in a tiny, non ventilated room. I was tired, booked in, and paid the VAT of 2.6%. After that, the owner insisted I pay for luggage- by the piece. This and basement lockers are NOT listed as being between €8. to €70. each. The lounge for the hostel is actually just a first floor bar. This is in a very seedy neighborhood, which is not safe at night. At 2:30 a.m. I was told I had to leave. It was snowing and freezing outside. I am a very kind and gentle American senior with extensive travel and hostel experience, educated, and multilingual. I appreciate diversity. They sat me outside at 2:30 a.m. in a huge city I am not familiar with. I was told there is a lot of attempts at price gouging there. Also, if the owner books 16 guests, and he throws out 3 of them for no reason at all other than they won't accept his upcharges for unlisted miscellaneous stuff that cost more than him assigning them a private room once they get there, then he can overbook and make even more money by not providing beds to persons who have already paid. It isn't as if the guests he threw out are rude or noisy or bothering other people... it seems more of a way to take advantage of travelers. There was also a distinctly uber-liberal, almost communist kind of feel to the hostel. It may be the reason it is named 'The People.' It would be more aptly named 'The Proletariats,' or 'The Haters,' based on how I was treated. If it's any consolation, he was exceedingly cruel to his receptionist too. I have never before in my life left a negative review anywhere- but if I could give this place a -5, or 5 thumbs down I would. Avoid this place at all costs.

    Great location, and cheap. Certainly no frills. Definitely the place you pay for when you're a broke traveller. Room was pretty bare bones and fridge was non functional. Our room was just a step up from a dormitory. Definitely get what you pay for. As we were out enjoying Paris most of the time, we didn't really mind that our room wasn't the nicest but Paris is expensive and it is what it is!

The bunk beds were all on one side so it felt nice and private. -Sheets were clean but the bottom sheet is laid on top not tucked in.. -Beds and pillows were comfy. -Can get a towel for a 10 euro deposit. -Service was friendly but a little slow. -Shower pressure and temp are great.

    Cheap and clean, good location and helpful staff. Unlike in most hostels, the beds were single beds and no bunk beds. It’s super nice that you don’t have to climb up shaking the entire complex when coming back later at night as your roommate. The street was very noisy and loud in the evening but at night when I came back it was extremely quiet and peaceful already, so it didn’t disturb your sleep.

    The hostel is a fantastic budget option for Paris. While nothing is cheap or in the city the hostel is a more affordable option. I stayed in the female dorm which was clean at most times, but more importantly quiet and private. The dorms are very clean and built to have privacy and safety. One of my best hostel experiences while travelling not as a backpacker but as part of a city trip.
