Matthew

Liked: Cleanliness
room doors do not have slow close so people constantly slam them at all hours of the night. Room lockers for valuables do not fit a standard carry on rolling bag so your valuables will not be secure even if you have a lock. Finally, the cleaning staff were extremely rude and condescending upon checking in. Area is also not very nice and very loud, but can get to Old Port close by walking.

Reception staff, Thhais, is very helpful!
Hostels are hostels which you do not usually expect a lot for comfort and luxury. Cleanness and safety are very important and The People has achieved those. The location is also perfect for going around the city and there is plenty space for relaxation, too.

Can’t trust them. They don’t do anything when someone steals something in an area they call safe for use by all.

This was my first time staying in a hostel, and I was surprised with how clean and modern the room I stayed in was. The bathroom was tiny--I could comfortably wash my hands in the sink while sitting on the toilet--but I was grateful to have it in-room. Having an all-female dormitory option was great, too, as I think all hostels should have. The cleaning staff comes in daily and all of my interactions with them in the room or hallway were rather me smiling or saying bonjour and them just ignoring me, which was not typically what happens in other hotels I've stayed in.

Good location, clean, overall positive
Location of this place was good, walking distance to train station and to the waterfront. Property was mostly clean (floors were not that clean), the sleeping pods were function and well maintained. Wifi was also good. I just wished they had a bit more substantive kitchen instead of just a microwave and fridge.

After staying at TPH in Strasbourg, I thought this would be a good choice. I was wrong. Pros: 10/15 min walk to train station, clean, not far from main areas. Cons: Small bar and mingling area, secuirty lights are on ALL NIGHT LONG- I got NO sleep because of this. Security lights are meant to come on when the other lights dont work, not stay on all the time. The rooms were HOT as balls. AC doesnt work, and the window opens about 2 inches. Bathroom is for hamsters- no space whatsoever and no outlet to use hair products. Also no mirror in the outer portion of the room so you cant even get ready if someone else is in the bathroom. For the amount of $ I spent on a private room, I wasn't thrilled.

Incredible!
I have nothing but amazing things to say about this place.The facilities were good, very clean, and close to the main toursitic attractions / city centre. Also a lively bar in the establishment where you can easily meet other people. This was my first time travelling alone, so I was naturally quite apprehensive at first but those worries were quickly set aside as this is an outstanding place to meet people from various cultures and languages, so that I quickly met friends there and arranged excursions/ nights out with them. The staff were also faultless, very good-vibes from all, and I appreciated that they tolerated my rubbish French skills, and contined to speak to me in French, as I asked them to avoid speaking to me in English as much as possible as I wanted to improve my French skills. :) I'm not normally one for leaving reviews, but felt the need to do so on this occasion. Thank you so much to all the wonderful staff here. My only negative would be that after being in this incredible place, and city, my holiday has peaked to soon and all the other places I am visiting simply cannot compare! :)

Staff was amazing, only problem was that I tried to check in early, when I arrived, to keep my bottom bed, but the morning staff didn’t let me, to get back there later to find out they gave my bottom bed to another girl. Good thing the evening staff was super amazing and they fixed my problem. Other than that, everything else was perfect 💜

Un hébergement en plein cœur de ville, idéal pour visiter Marseille ! Une chambre partagée propre avec de l’espace et un rangement sous clé possible. Grande salle de bain, attention au sol carrelé…ou l’ensemble des carreaux se détachent… Un équipe disponible et sympathique, je recommande !
