Absolut reizendes, einzigartiges Baudesign, gemütliches Ambiente trotz viel Beton, topsauber; das netteste und sympathischste Personal was mir in einem Hostel wohl jemals begegnet ist, zudem unkompliziert, hilfsbereit und gefuldig. Bleibt definitiv ein Geheimtipp für künftige Gelegenheiten. <3

Sehr große, moderne Zimmer und saubere Sanitäranlagen. Für die relativ kleinen Spinde benötigt man ein eigenes Schloss. Es gab eine Fahrradabstellmöglichkeit innerhalb des Hostels. Das Frühstück war von einer kleineren Auswahl, allerdings hat es mir an nichts gefehlt und die einzelnen Sachen waren sehr lecker.

Die Unterkunft war gut für eine Nacht, aber der Check in nachts um zwei wenn die Tür nicht aufgeht, war schrecklich. Nach fast 1 Stunde und Waage Unterstützung bin ich dann selbst dran rauf gekommen, woran es lag und kam rein, bis ich im Bett lag, war aber schon 3:15 Uhr und ich musste alle wecken , da war ich etwas verzweifelt und alleine

It is really a good place to choose in Basel with easy connection to the city and in the room it is really quiet. The hostel is really clean and modern, with lift considering all levels. Breakfast is included and very delicious. Staff are very enthusiastic! We really enjoyed our one day night in Basel!
