Their website said they offer free cancellation within 48 hours of the stay. I haf to change my travel plans MONTHS before my stay. I requested a cancellation and they DENIED me! This is illegal. More than $400. What kind of horrible people would do this? You need to give me my money back, this is theft, nothing more.

A bit deceiving for an hostel. It is mostly an hotel with some hostel features. I am expecting staff to invite people for games, gathering, promote their tours and expeditions. We had to ask about those which is unusual for hostels. We visited multiples hostels in different countries and it felt flat limit depressing in common areas. Also, hostels are not a place for families with babies and elder people (70yo+) they have no place there. It’s well positioned but felt short on expectations.

Nice, but no room cleaning in over 4 days.

Nice hostel. Check in was quick and easy. The breakfast buffet was good. It would have been nice if they could have empty the garbage in the room daily without being asked. No room cleaning service over 4 days.

Be aware of room listening and verify not be fool

I booked a 4 beds dom but assigned to a 6 beds dom without notice, it was a 4 beds room but they add additional beds to accommodate more people in case of business booming, that makes the room filled with beds and no space for chairs and other amenities. Other 2 guests were treated same, we paid more for 4 beds dom but got a 6 dom, plus very poor room condition, no shower door / curtain, no linens, you need bring your own. The 6 beds dom just sits by elevators and stairs, it’s very noisy, it’s also back to the street. They changed more than others as better condition,

I booked a ‘One Bed in a Coed Dorm Room 5 beds’ at Villa Saint Exupéry Beach Hostel but the hostel gave me a three bunk bed (six people) room. The picture of the room I booked on Hotels.com was two bunk bed (four people) plus one single bed (one person), so it was a room used by a total of five people. I asked the hostel to change it to the room which I initially reserved but the hostel told me, "the room had been given to someone else" and they told me to complain to Hotels.com I do not condone this breach of the hostel’s contract because the room used by 5 people and the room used by 6 people are different in size and rates. I have made a reservation through Hotels.com one month before I arrived at the hostel but the hostel gave the room to someone else for higher rates. So this hostel is making money is a dishonest way and misleading customers They did not even apologize to me for breaking the contract and they were very rude to me. Therefore, I looked for other hostels but they were all full and it was in the middle of the night, so I could not move to another hostel. I traval around the world every month so I have a lot of experience staying at different location and hostels/hotels However this is the first time I have come across a hostel/hotel which is just dishonest. If the hostel does not sort out this issue properly for their breach of contract then I will report them to the department of Nice, France.
