    The chill out area downstairs isn’t really user friendly - the musky / dank scent of earth and underground makes it not very comfortable. Would be great if the hostel organised something social Check-in is a little late at 4pm

    The location is great for getting off the train and exploring old town. The dorm beds are private but tricky getting into/out-of the older wooden beds. There weren’t lockers in the room that could be used really so you either can use the downstairs lockers or leave your things in a large pigeon hole. Staff were really friendly, can store luggage when you arrive.

    I wouldn't recommend this hostel for people prone to claustrophobia... Weird structure, the kitchen is subterranean and it smells mold, no windows anywhere so it feels a bit like a prison... Too dark, it feels a bit weird really. The toilets were always dirty and the room is unbelievably small! The owner wanted to put more beds to make more money and got us an uncomfortable room instead....

    It has a modern vibe, excellent location, friendly staff

    Smell of the cigarette because some people smoke in the bathroom, not the hostel fault. The wooden beds are quite noisy when someone goes to bed in the middle of the night.

    Location, close to the train station

    Central hostel with special charme

    • Bed in 8-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room

    The chill lounge in the cellar was obviously not popular so no possibility to meet other travellers - but this might be different at other times of the year. The check-in time from 4 pm is relatively late, although left-luggage is possible.

    The historic building in the sight of the train station was remodelled to host a new generation of hostel with an extra portion of privacy. Once in your cocooned bed it's comfy, clean and modern. The dorms themselves are very tiny, and so are the en-suite toilet and shower compartments - make sure you've trained for your beach body (anyway the beach is only 25..45 min away). The staff is always helpful and friendly.

    Central stay but with room for improvement

    The 8 bed female dormitory seemed like sleeping in a coffin. All the beds were together in like one big box separated by wooden walls. Also, the lockers were only for the bottom beds and most of them broken. It was also annoying that we had to push the button for water in the shower every 10 seconds to keep it flowing… Probably due to the location, but it was quite noisy at night hearing party music and drunk people from the street. What probably bothered me the most was that the common room is in the basement without natural light and no kitchen. It was extremely damp down there and I had difficulty to breathe.

    Very close to the train station, good blankets, comfortable mattresses.

    I’d avoid buying the breakfast options, for me it was not worth the money. Getting a breakfast there is so awkward, since it is the person at the reception preparing instead of a bufet and the portion is just sad and small. Some beds have an awfully tiny access that is nit really shown on the pictures and do not have an attributed space that you can lock your stuff in, so beware of that.

    I loved the location, it is absolutely perfect. The hostel itself is quite clean and modern which I really liked. The staff was very helpful and nice.

    Shared toilets were not cleaned that often, and had towels often absent. The beds in the dormitory were very noisy, you could easily feel people moving through the bed frame. I would recommend replacing them with something newer.

    The staff was very friendly and helpful. The place is very central, close to both city center and station.

    There was no warm water in the shower and the shower heads were put up in the way where you literally can only wash you hair because you can not move the shower head. And also the shocking information for me was that the deposit is 50e, everything was fine, I got my money back of course but that is a lot of money.

    I liked the location, it is right close to the train station, and couple minutes away from all of the touristic locations. Bed was clean and comfortable.

    It was very warm in the dormitory overnight. However, there was a fan and air conditioning, which helped

    Le Maje hostel was in a great location, close to the railway station, tram stop for the line to the coast and at the edge of the old part of Montpellier. There were many options for food and drinks in the locality and the hostel staff were friendly, knowledgeable and helped me plan my stay. The hostel was peaceful at night, so I was able to sleep well. The shower was good and there was plenty of nice areas to relax in the lounge area.

    Rooms where small, shower door in the first room i used didn't fully close or lock!

    The location and the building where amazing. Right next to the damn train station, so you can arrive in the city and go straight to the hostel to drop your stuff off. The reception was fantastic, the staff where awesome! And there's this whole underground catacomb like area with leather chairs that made me feel like a James bond villain. Amazing.

    It's a little weird going to the next restaurant for breakfast. But what's worse is that they are served two slices of dry bread for breakfast. You can't serve this as breakfast and get paid. I paid for breakfast for 4 days, but I didn't eat breakfast for the other two days. My advice is, do not buy breakfast at all.

    It was nice overall. The reception was very helpful. The hotel is in the center of the city and very close to the train station..

    The private room on the ground floor was comfortable but, by mistake, someone probably coming back from a night out, tried to enter our room waking us up (and a bit scaring us). I would signal better to the other hosts that it’s a private room. For the rest, it was great.

    Great position, room with private bathroom very clean. Friendly staff.

    I stayed one night from Saturday to Sunday. There is a bar on the opposite side of the road and it was super noisy until the morning
