The People - Paris Marais

I stayed in an 8 bed dorm room. It was very clean, beds had privacy curtains, individual lights, storage shelfs, charging points and each assigned a lockable storage locker. The washrooms were also very clean. Guests have complained about the showers that go off after every 30 seconds - while it may have been a little inconvenient, I felt it was a great reminder to not use as much water....one can easily press on the knob but your conscious won't allow you to keep pressing as many times, so I guess it works for water conservation 😆. There were chill out rooms on each floor and a kitchen which I didn't use. It is easily accessible via public transport, 2 minutes walk to/from Sully-Morland station on metro line 7 or 9 minutes walk to/from Bastille on metro line 5. The river Seine is on the opposite end of the building so one can take long walks along the river or Saint Martin canal nearby. From here you can also walk to Bastille, Notre Dame Cathedral, etc. PS: Sofitel Hotel next door, S/O Paris, has a rooftop bar with what I believe is the best view of Paris (the smoking room has an even better view....not to forget the view from the washroom side)
