This was a great alternative to a hostel - staying in a Parisian apartment made for more flexibility and the chance to meet a lot of interesting people! Requires a bit more figuring out than regular hostels, but it's well worth it.
HOWEVER: if you're booking Lucky Youth, BOOK FROM THEIR SITE DIRECTLY. They seem to have issues with hostel websites and sometimes the availability listed is incorrect. Email them directly or call them instead.

DO NOT BOOK THIS HOSTEL THROUGH GOMIO!!! Apparently there's been problems with gomio showing availability when there actually isn't any. We were told upon arrival that we would not have a place to stay 4 of the 5 nights we booked. It worked out in the end, and the lady was accommodating considering, but it was a huge hassle. Also, this is multiple apartments in paris, ours was in Montparnasse (not Montmartre), and was not cleaned prior to our arrival. You NEED to bring sheets and blankets, none are provided, and the beds are uncomfortable as it is. Staff was less than punctual and you have to call to find out where you're staying when you arrive in paris, which is unnecessary use of phone minutes. Nice to have the kitchen, fridge and shower in the apartment - no TV or stereo as advertised, and no washing machines or tour/travel info for paris. Front door was broken, and barely stayed closed - no real intention of fixing it was made. Fun to stay in an apartment type place, but not worth the hassle.
