This is a hostel! It gives you a bed and decent climate control. I had a charging port above my bed, though albeit half the ports did not work, and a light for my little bed. The staff were very friendly and the entire place seemed overall very social. Great location in terms of getting to and from the airport but it's a bit off of the centre of the city. It took me around 20 minutes on the, easily accessible, public transport to get anywhere where I was going.

I did not appreciate feeling nickle and dimed for things like a locker and a pad lock though this could be just the standard in french hostels, though i have traveled around in hostels and never seen this before. The curtain for my bed did not fully close nor were the bathrooms clean consistently. The charging port above my bed was also only half functioning and was placed above the bed with a short shelf in such a manner that most nights i'd wake up with my phone or items as such having fallen very close to my face from a decent height.

I was really upset shocked when we arrived , it is a hostel. I did not read any where in the description that it was a hostel , I thought it was a regular hotel. Saying that , we did have our own room with private bathroom as booked, that did the job for a night stay , near the train station .
