Hostel Altair - Nice, France

It was my first time in hostel and it was a worst experience ever!

The Hotel is good,clean and in a very good position,near Notre Dame,ten minutes walk from the Promenade de Anglais or the old town.

Good hostel Located in the city center close to the tram

Very basic hostel. Bad shower and had some problems with the staff. Not very nice toilets.

The location was good, the walk from the railway station was short and the walk to the beach was not bad either. The staff spoke good english and was very friendly. Payment only in cash. The wifi didn't work in the rooms, or at least not in our room and barely in the reception.

This is the most most most worst hostel that I had ever stayed. The hostel owner is so mean and very impolite!! There are so many extra charges that you need to pay: sheet and blanket are not provided, and if you want them, you have to pay extra money; if you want to leave your baggage in the hostel after checking out, you also have to pay extra money for it. The environment is very bad: the room I stayed in was so dirty and all the beds are so old. You have to sleep in a very noisy surrounding every night because there are so many people on the street making very loud noise every night. 12 rooms with 6 beds each need to share 2 toilets only and there is NO tap in the toilet, so you have to wash your hand in your room after using the toilet. Even though you have made a reservation and received a confirmation email, if the owner say he didn't receive your booking, you maybe asked to pay for 100% of your hostel fee but not less than 100% (you should pay a proportion when making reservation). What a so mean hostel owner!!!

No major complaints about this place, great location, literally a ten minute walk to the beach, restaurants, bars and clubs. Place was clean, staff were relatively friendly. Would recommend it.

I will never go there again .the staff have poor attitude and the place is so dirty .it is horrible

Clean hostel with nice people working there but I recomend toliets in rooms. Overall had a get stay and met heaps of nice people.

It's located very near the main tourists street. It wasnt very clean and you have to pay for towels and sheets. And I didnt felt very secure with the strange neighboors always shooting...

Not that many residents but pretty clean and the location was ok, 15min walk to the beach and 2min to the mainstreet. No breakfast though.

This hostel was so crappy, one of the worst ive been in. Its located in a very dodgy, smelly area. The staff wont let you wake them up after 11pm so no late check ins, or you are charged 50 euros. That makes it really inconvienient. We had to share disgusting toilets with half the hostel. No computers or breakfast or anything extra included in the price. VERY BAD PLACE. The only thing that made my stay in Nice was the great people I met at the hostel.

I reserved a dormitory bed in four people room. But the staff in ALTAIR gave me a portable and tiny bed in the room for six people. The portable bed was so dirty and small that I could not help leave the hostel. The staff was so rude and impolite. Never never stay at this hostel. This was the worst hostel that I have ever stayed in my life.

We had a very nice time in Altair Hostel, but I think it was mostly because of the people we met there than because of the character of the hostel. Well situated though and pretty clean. You have to bring your own sheets, otherwise you have to pay for it. Pretty good but pretty expensive also.

The hostel is only 10 minutes far from the sea and from Old Nice. It is in the square of the church of Notre Dame: in my case it is perfect because it is very near to my french school (Sprachcaffe)! Cleaness is to improve, the staff is serious, but does not have much personality.

Ganska tråkigt hostel och tamburen luktar piss. Men hostelet är inget mer än en säng och toalett. Killen som jobbar där och hans hund är söta. Men de ligger bra till vid den stora gamla kyrkan och nära till tågstationen.
