Question

Cheap, wonderful hostel recommended in paris near a university?

Answer 1

If you are a student, I would try "cité universitaire" on boul. Jourdan.  They have many international residences and during the summer months, you can get a residence room pretty cheap.

Answer 2

Given that there are at least 13 autonomous universities in Paris there is scarcely a place that is not "near a university."

This website has a variety of good hostels on it: http://www.cheaphostel.com/
