Generator Paris

I was a bit concerned about the cleanliness of the bathrooms which were often mentioned in the previous reviews, but it was completely fine in my experience. It has a rooftop bar as well, but it can be crowded as the local people could come in as well. One of the cheapest places to stay in Paris, but nothing to complain about!

Small, crowded, smelly, buds on the wall, only two toilets the whole floor and one of them is out of usage. They don’t provide water even if they have a bar, the vending machines is crazy expensive. Need to go to the reception for a hair dryer and leave your id there which is very dangerous. Close to metro but far from city centre. All in all won’t come back in the future.

The generator was such a great place to stay. People were so friendly and staff helpful.

The room is warm for a 10 bed dormitory, even the AC is on and a bit stuffy. We did open the window it help a bit. There is a shower and toilet attached the room there is no window maybe that the reason why its stuffy. I’m not sure if both facilities is being clean regulary.

The toilet was clogged and hadn't been cleaned for a long time. The trash bin was full. The staff made a lot of noise while cleaning; if you plan to sleep during the day, you have to put up with it. Its location is close to the metro station, its good. You might get bothered by random people while sitting on the benches at the entrance.

I got really lucky here. Shared a room with all positive people. From the moment I arrived, the staff members were great. The hostel was extremely easy to find, was close to public transit, and there were several stores and restaurants around. I'm not much of a drinker, but I do appreciate that they had a rooftop bar with a great view. Breakfast wasn't too bad for the price either. Only problem I had was that there are only 4 washers and 4 dryers for that entire hostel so I never had a chance to use it as they were always occupied. The price for detergent was hefty so, bring your own!
