Petit Espace Boutique Hostel Reviews

Good location, clean bathroom. We were on the top floor in a private room that was described as having two queen beds. I might be wrong but it doesn't look or feel like two queen beds. Might be wrong. It was very hot on the top floor, so it's good that the AC was working well. The wall was peeling off in some places. I would not complain, but for the price we had paid I expected an a lot better room. I haven't been in the shared room, it might be better. NB the reception works until 10pm. A bit inconvenient, but it's okay. But we arrived at 9:45 pm, and the receptionist had already left and was on his way home. So we were seen to our room by another worker who could not provide us with some info or change the room.

I decided to try this new hostel as a budget alternative. It is dormitory style, in a kind of mini-cube design, like Japanese hostels I have read about, but with curtains instead of secure doors. On the plus side: Everything was very clean. The shower was nice and hot. The plumbing all worked. The reception area is a nice coffee bar with good food, coffee and tea and good WiFi internet and a nice loop of current music by the original artists. There is also a 4th floor balcony to watch the sunrise. On the minus side: There were no power outlets in the reception area. (But there are two in each cubiicle.) The shower had no hooks or rack to hang a towel or clothes. The cubicles have no secure door, just a curtain. (But there is a separate locker for each cubicle to secure luggage and valuables.) There was no hot water for coffee available early before 6:00 am. And the sleeping area was refrigirated to about 20 degrees C (but the comforter was nice and warm all night). I might try it again, and I will definitely be back to enjoy the coffee.

It is more suitable to travel alone and want to save money. The environment is average and the reception is very warm.

It's great. I like the breakfast very much. I think this one is the best among the several youth hostels.
