Some what hard to locate, but is in a beautiful spot next to a glossy lake/river. About a five minute walk to the bus stop and a ten minute ride to get to the city center for WIFI and food. It's an hour walk back and forth if the busses have stopped. We didn't mind to much, we like the exercise and talking. The best part was that we didn't share the room once for our three nights. This is probably due to the slow season, but I appreciated the increased comfort, security and the willingness to have our own space. Pretty nice set up having our own room with five beds for $30 Euro a night. We did not like that we had to vacate by 10AM. Overall, I would suggest staying at this hostel.

Hostel response:
Hello, We all wish you a happy new year. See you soon, Lionel

One woman in the staff was very rude with me about a key. I did not lose the key of the room, somebody took my key by mistake, it was not my fault, however she wants me to pay 10 euros.

Hostel response:
Bonjour,

Sorry, but you were in charge of your key.
Anyone is informed about the fact that you will be charged if you don't get back your key ther day you leave.
Best regards,
Lionel

The very long closing hours between 10 and 3:30 are very inconvenient.

Hostel response:

I'll start with what I liked about this hostel. You are given everything you need: a decent room with sheets and a heavier blanket for cooler nights, internet access, an adequate breakfast, and a well placed location. Here's why I'd never stay again: At 10:00 each morning you are obligated to leave your room for housekeeping. You are told that you can hang out and use the rest of the hostel, but this does not include the kitchen or the communal area-there's literally one couch that's accesible at this time. As if that weren't crazy enough-the hostel CLOSES from noon to 3:30. So yes, this means that you are paying €20 per day for a hostel room that is completely inaccesible for 5.5 hours. When I was in Nantes, it was pouring and there was a girl in my room who was so sick and even she had to leave and wander in the rain until they re-opened! This hostel is only good for people just passing through one night or if your only other option is sleeping on the street.

Hostel response:
Hello, If you come in a youth hostel to stay the full day inside, especially in Nantes, it is your choice. But we can not give the satisfaction tou need. lionel
