Absolute Paris Hostel, Paris, France:

A serious positive of the Absolute Paris Hostel is its lack of a lockout: many popular Paris hostels practice lockouts and Paris hostels are pricey -- thus being shut out of your digs during the day feels like a drag if one calculates cost of one's bed by the hour. The Absolute Paris hostel is in the Republique district -- not a bad location and being waterfront (the Canal Saint-Martin) is a big plus.
