Stayed there for two nights for a business trip. Because you're out in the city most of the time, the only thing you need is a bed to sleep in. And that's what they've got. And even good ones. I slept in a room for 6. Everything was OK. Friendly staff, friendly guests, trendy neighborhood. Of course, some guests snore,... More

Ask for a room in the back garden area or a quiet retreat. Nice breakfast, free Internet, big rooms and large clean bathrooms. My room had a safe, mini fridge, lots of space, comfy beds and a separate sitting area. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. Very convenient to several different tram stops and an easy walk... More

I think the fact that this is probably the cheapest possibility to sleep in a very expensive city is the reason that you meet also people who are not interested in seeing the city, and even people who are not tourists (I suppose people who haven't find a job allowing them to find a permanent place to sleep). Unfortunately, the... More

Pretty much your basic hostel. Room was fine. We had a twin bed room that actually had an extra single bed in it. Wi-fi worked pretty well in the room. Bathrooms are shared. The ones we used worked just fine and were clean as far as we could tell. Kitchen was ok but a little small but wasn't as clean... More

I know things are generally pricey in Switzerland but this really was poor value for money. The bathrooms are grotty and the rooms are tired-looking. It's like an old warehouse attic room that's been separated into rooms so the partition walls mean it's very noisy.

Hostel is friendly and laid back, but to he honest I've stayed in better and cheaper hostels. The room was fine, but very sparsely furnished. I can live with that - it is a hostel, after all. But the bathrooms were not particularly pleasant and really are in need of an upgrade - they were smelly, with plastic curtains on... More

The hostel is housed in an old factory building, and this is visible throughout the hostel. Great care has been given to decorating the place. The rooms are big, and you have your own locker with a key. Showers are clean and spacious - enough hangers for your clothes and a small bench. The issue the reviewer below talks about... More

As Backpackers accommodation goes this is pretty good. Located in Basel's new cultural quarter, it provides a very imaginative re-use for a old industrial building. The place seemed clean and efficiently mananged. The staff seemed genuinely friendly and helpful without being officious - this in turn seems to create a laid back atmosphere. I enjoyed being able to put my... More
