Lucky Youth Backpacker Apartments Hostels

  Customer Review 

Guys, I have travelled through 5 countries in Europe so far. This place is in my top three out of numerous hostels that i&'ve stayed in! the floor is heated and the bed rooms have an amazing view from the 14th floor from which you can see each and every inch of Paris! Honestly, the view is far better than some that you see on post cards. I took some of my greatest photos of Paris directly from my bunk. I was so thrilled. Full kitchen with pots, pans, plates etc. A shower and even a bath tub. Met lots of cool individuals from Sweden, Norway and Finland, ideal for socialising. Its apartment style so the setting is extremely peaceful and stress free. Ideal location right near to MCTT (Montparnasse Central Train Station), a supermarket, the metro, and bike rentals. Also right in front of the shuttle station that takes you directly to CDG airport. There is certainly no curfew and an excellent heating system, as the floor is heated. Also, it was much cleaner than inside the hostels I stayed before. I will book again on my way back for certain.

The heating! This hostel is extremly cosy plus you sleep in a properly heated room ! so great when you&'re travelling during the winter! I could sleep with just a tee-shirt and I could walk bear feet in my room. The heating is really something due to the fact Paris is around zero degrees right now, as properly as the night prior to we stayed in a hostel in Bastille area that was twice far more expensive than this one and there was no heating so imagine! we were so glad to uncover this location the day after, really. It&'s a fantastic homely setting in an authentic Parisian apartment, much better than the usual bare, cold, regimented hostel. Also, you are only sharing the bathroom and kitchen with the other people in your dorm so your not sharing amenities with 50 other people (like at St Christopher&'s hostel exactly where I stayed in July). The location is just perfect, 5 minutes walk from the metro. You don&'t really desire to walk when it&'s so cold so the location was just perfect. Some people in our group chose to stay at Lucky Youth Panoramic, their hostel in Montparnasse. I visited them and saw the greatest view ever from the 14th floor!, I would say that the Lucky Youth Panoramic is even greater than this one but it depends on what you like. Toby is super cool. The location is clean and properly maintained. I&'ll be back next summer for sure.

The only hostel I could find that does NOT enforce this stupid 2am curfew! They give you a key upon check in that permits you to come back at anytime, day and night. Also, inside the contrary of the 2 previous hostels I stayed in Paris the week before, we did not meet only people from the US but instead a lot of travlers from Scandinavia and also from Europe. Some of the norwegian girls were very hot along with the others were cool anyway:). Also, all their bedrooms are mixed, which I believe is VERY essential because you have more opportunities during the night you know. Properly it depends on how you wish to spend your nights LOL. Lots of enjoyable in our apartment. Same for my friend who stayed in another apartment with girls from the Nederlands and dudes from Germany. English is not my mother tong but hey there &'s often body language just in case! You don&'t see the staff so much - only upon check in - which gives you a lot of freedom, like in a home where you would invite 10 students to share the night with you. No cost web access and PC in our room was enough to plan our day trips. The web is to share only with those that share your bedroom so you get to use it anytime really, not like at St Christopher&'s where we had to queue during 35 minutes. We found it comfortable to get picked up at the metro station. No need to fight to find the hostel on the map. I wish I could have stayed more but Amsterdam was calling us you know. The fridge inside the dorm was extremly handy as we could store our Coke and our ham. Coke in Paris is about 8 euros per bottle. Too expensive. I&'d rather buy my own at the supermarket and put it inside the fridge. I&'ll be back guys! tack sa mycket!

Nice set up, lots of freedom to do what you want and come to back to the hostel at whatever time. We were late and also the lady from the hostel talked us through how to get there and made lots of exceptions for us, even though it was past their office hours I believe - so very helpful indeed :)

The hostel is actually an Apartment. Very cool arrangement: basically, 8 beds with a desktop computer, full kitchen, bathroom, and small load laundry machine, minifridge, and induction stovetop. The fact that you can cook your own food, make your own coffee, and sit down at the dining table makes this a hostel I will always book if I&'m ever back in Paris. I have the opinion this spot is more secure and personal simply because it&'s an anonymous apartment, not a large dorm. Also, contrary to the other reviews, I had great experiences with getting picked up at the metro station, and also the management was very helpful and responisble
