The above statement is true.
Bastille was hated because it stood for the despotic power of the king.
In France, the Bastille was a fortress prison. Everyone despised it since it represented the French King's tyrannical powers. Political opponents of the King were imprisoned in Bastille. It revealed the French King's overbearing personality. Because King Louis XIV utilized the Bastille as a jail for upper-class members of French society, it was considered an expression or emblem of the brutal monarchy. Soon after, the location was converted into a prison to detain inmates of all backgrounds and socioeconomic classes.
