The People - Strasbourg

The hostel was clean. The beds were very comfy and I loved the curtains that provided darkness even when the main light was on. There was a plug socket and usb plugs next to the bed which was convenient and a lot of storage by the bed too. There was a good amount of showers and toilets and they were very clean. The atmosphere was nice and everyone was really respectful. The showers had a nice temperature and good water pressure too.

The atmosphere at the hostel was friendly and chilled, and the location is really cool: a former tobacco factory converted in cultural spaces. Lots of nice cafes and restaurants as well as exhibition spaces around. We only stayed 2 nights but it looks like there is a lot going on (the hostel itself organises concerts and other events, there was a wine tasting in the space next to eat,...)

I chose this place because it was much cheaper than a hotel room, just five tram (not bus) stops from Strasbourg's main train station and offers an all-night check-in. (I was in the last train from Paris.) Each eight-bed room has its own modern lock that you open with a card. Each bed has its own curtain. Once you are inside, you can turn on a light that lights only your space, plug in your devices and place them on small shelves. Instead of having to suffer from other people's noise as I had feared, I worried about the noise I myself was making sorting my stuff, zipping luggage and typing (softly) on my computer. I also found myself awaking from time to time to check if it was time to turn off my 5:45 alarm to keep it from awaking my silent room-mates, whom I never saw except for the shoes outside their curtains.

All about The People was great. Would definitely come again. Great location, quiet neighborhood with excellent restaurants nearby. Easy to get to from train station via C tram to Gallia. The bed is comfortable and private with a curtain. Own bar and outside seating area. Left to early to experience breakfast. Would return in a heartbeat. They offer various items like towels, ear plugs, and merch. Rooms unlock with key card as well as elevator, making it pretty secure. The curtains blocked any light during the night which was great.

The location was great, right by Zurich Street and the canal. Strasbourg is a small city, and this place is just a 5-10 minute walk to main attractions like Notre Dame, Palais Rohan, and Église Réformée. Our room was spacious, bright with natural light, cozy, and quiet, featuring high ceilings and plenty of luggage space. The in-room sync was very comfortable. The co-working, dining, and relaxation areas were large, with options to eat indoors or on the terrace. The staff was extremely helpful. Breakfast is available for just 4 euros per person, which I believe is great value for money.
