Spent 6 nights in a female dorm at Slo Hostel while visiting the French Rivera and overall, I had a great stay. Hostel looks very new and is clean and modern but in a historic building with lots of charm. Bed and Wifi are very comfortable. The pod beds are awkward to make and the drawers underneath are a bit awkward but honestly the attention given to designing those beds is commendable. The little mirrored chest in the beds for makeup and storage was a great idea. Never seen that before! Location is perfect for the train station, but it's about 10 minutes to Old Town with the nearby tram. If you're doing lots of day trips, it's a great spot, but to access some buses and the water, it's a bit far. That said, I didn't have an issue with it. Hostel does NOT have a kitchen, but there is a small fridge for guests. Hostel also does NOT organize any activities or events, which personally I was fine with. Breakfast is about 10 Euro and looked pretty good and well stocked. I didn't get it but saw it daily when I had my own breakfast. Dorm room also had good AC, which was so nice to have in late June in Nice. A few things to note: - Elevator is functioning but makes a VERY loud weird noise as it approaches the third floor. - The shared bathrooms and showers are fine, but some doors stick or don't lock well. And the ventilation in there is weird because it can definitely linger smells. - Hostel has NO guest laundry but there is a laundromat nearby. - The female dorm has huge windows that overlooks residential buildings. There are NO curtains in that room, which made me uncomfortable at times. They should really add that because changing in the bed isn't easy. - There can be some loud street noise in the evenings, but it's not too disruptive, just be aware. - Dorm room doors automatically slam, which shakes the walls and beds. I get why they do it (for fire protection) but it is really disruptive given how hard it slams. Staff is very helpful and willing to answer questions, just double check some of answers because I did get misdirected a few times. Overall, I had a great experience at the hostel and would definitely recommend it plus stay again.
