Cool "hipster" location, all good, like one should expect from a hostel. Transit pass a valuable plus. Recommended.

I paid for a queen single bed room but was given a family room with 4 bunk beds. I was struggling with power outlets to charge my phones because of not enough of them around my bed. Was way different than what was shown during booking. Had to checkout and walk to Basel SBB station early morning hours like around 5:30 to 6 but did not feel safe.

At check-in the cc for booking was not charged, so I had to pay a higher price than on the booking confirmation: CHF 33 instead of CHF 29. Should be some additional guest tax?

Personel çok yardımcı oldu. Havaalanı öncesinde valizimi de emanet olarak bırakmama izin verdiler. Temizlik çok iyi, sessiz, çok güzel bir mini kampüs içinde. Merkeze ve ulaşım güzergahına yakın. Özellikle tercih edecekler için yakında Türk market ve restoranları da var.

Die Küche war alles andere als Sauber, kann aber auch an den anderen Gästen liegen. In meinem Zimmer gab es keinen Schreibtisch, allerdings konnte mit das Hotelpersonal Ersatz bieten. Die Duschen wollte ich nicht benutzen, da diese nicht sehr einladend aussahen und mich persönlich angeekelt haben. Sonst war der Aufenthalt aber OK, man kriegt für was man bezahlt.
