I didn't have any food or drinks there because this trip had a tight schedule. The staff are very friendly, helpful, and enthusiastic. A bus stop is in front of this hostel. It's convenient and secure to take a bus back if you're traveling alone and commuting late at night.

    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.

    Location is awesome, very close to the subway and RER. Close to supermarkets and a super-good quality patisiserie La Maison Bayat, cool spot to have breakfast or lunch if you're on a budget. Watch out for the working hour of line 4. Reception was quite helpful, rooms were clean and the crowd is mostly students and budget travelers. Location is quite safe despite being in a gare area. Everyone spoke in English and there's daily cleaning which is not common among hostels. Overall great stay.

    Fantastic location, in a quiet area near the Mairie du XVIIIème and opposite the Bibliothèque, but within easy walking distance of Chateau Rouge, Montmartre and Pigalle. Live music, theatre, food and spices from all over the world. The Montclair is a welcoming hostel and our twin bedded room felt like a comfortable budget hotel room, with a private bathroom, a desk and 2 chairs. The Montclair has safe boxes and luggage storage facilities. The kitchen offers a hot drinks machine and other facilities.

    The location is kinda far to city central, basically you have to spend 20 mins above to go over there, but the room price compares to the others is cheaper. If you have limited budget, it will be your best choice. Also, it has a supermarket on the corner of street, it’s easy to let you buy some groceries and cook in the hostel.
