Way to reclaim my single life for a few short days. It was my first hostel experience, and I cannot believe I've never done this before. In Nice, more than any other part of France I've visited, people speak English. This hostel hires young and energetic staff from various corners of the planet, so you hear more English spoken than...

The staff is rude and unhelpful. Additionally they seem to have no reliable information. There was a strike in the city and they had no clue about it. Neither did they have suggestions for how to get to the airport when there was no public transport. The rooms are not cleaned regularly and theres things lying around from earlier users... More

The second I walked into the hostel I felt like I was back home in the US. The staff spoke fluent English (some were American), the music in the bar was American, and it seemed like the primary language (written and spoken) was English. Our room was a tight fit (5 bedroom-girl), but the bathroom was spacious. However, the only... More

I have been staying at probably 50 hostels in my life that has been great but this one was unbearable. The room and bathroom was dirty, but the worst was that there was no air in the room I was in. No window nor air con. The air was so bad I couldnt handle it and left the room 2... More

I have stayed at the Villa Gardens before so I thought I would try the Beach since the location was closer. DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE!!! Upon arrival, we were told that our room might not be available as they were having some "difficulties" with the room, but couldn't place us anywhere else since they were full. A half hour... More

Everything was perfect. The room and bathroom were clean. The bed was very comfortable (I especialy love that pilliow :P) The stuff was great and very helpful. And don't let me start about the perfect location... ;) I met a lot of nice people there and bring home great memories.

don't bother even looking at other hostels in Nice, this one has everything you could ever want and more from a hostel. Optimal location near the beach, old nice, place messena, bus stops, train, and shopping. Staff is friendly, welcoming, and helpful. It's safe and clean and SO accommodating. There's organized adventure trips, and great communal space. Free internet and... More

After spending most of our time in France in budget hotels, we decided to try out this hostel in Nice. It turned out to be our favourite accommodation. The guy at the front desk was friendly and welcoming. We had booked a 4-bed dorm but it turned out, for whatever reason, they had to put us in a 6-bed dorm.... More

I stayed here a for 2 nights and loved it. It's just a 5 minute walk from the train station or 20 min taxi journey (taxi's are REALLY expensive so try get the train or bus). The hostel is also just by lots of shops, and restaurants. The bars are a bit scarce but the ones we found were really... More
