Not worth my money..not paying for a towel nor to make my own bed
Lange Zeit beim einchecken und dann noch unglaublich unfreundliches Personal. Ein Zimmer zur Einzelbenutzung =2 Kaihüttenbetten 80cm breit zum selber anziehen, ohne Duschtuch und Zimmer ohne WC und Dusche. Kosten pro Nacht 130.- Franken.
We were surprised when our reservation in a mixed dormitory was changed upon arrival and we had to seperate. We had to pay an additional fee to get such a mixed room anyway.
In desperate need of A/C!!!! Was very expensive compared to similar places in other countries, but so was everything else in Switzerland.I really didn't like the towel-like bottom sheet.
Schönes historisches Gebäude direkt am Bach und nah am Rhein. Gute Verkehrsanbindung, sehr nettes Personal an der Rezeption.
Beautiful historic building directly on the Bach and near the Rhine, good transport links, very nice staff at the reception.
Clean hostel located a bit out of the way of public transit. There is no social aspect to speak of so don’t expect it. Rooms are clean and quiet so if that’s all you needs it’s great. Showers are on a button with a 15s timer that you have to keep pushing to get water which is very annoying. Overall fine for a night or two but I wouldn’t stay longer. Food is reasonably priced for Switzerland.
I had trouble with payments paid on lone web quoted in $ but wad charged in swiss. Basel youth hostel is extra ordinary.
Un accueil désagréable à l’arrivée Lits moins pratiques et confortables que dans une cabane de montagne Par contre bon buffet de petits déjeuner où le personnel était agréable
An unpleasant welcome on arrival Beds less practical and comfortable than in a mountain cabin In contrast to a good breakfast buffet where the staff was pleasant
sockets near bed and clean bathroom.
I think towels should be provided, otherwise people who stay 1 night can't dry it so store it wet inside the backpack. The hostel is not well indicated by signal post in the city for people who haven't access to internet.

Een hele mooie plek met lekkere bedden. We misten wel een scherm om EKvoetbal op te kijken
A very nice place with nice beds, but we missed a screen to watch EKvoetbal

... and you can also bring your dog with you (in your own room of course) Top!
Everyone from cleanong crew to front desk was just great in everyway
grouchy receptionists! but apart from that it’s a pretty nice place to stay right in the middle of town, with a solid breakfast too.

Einmal mehr ein toller Aufenthalt mit unseren Enkelinnen in Basel. Viel erlebt und gesehen. Die Juni ist dann abends immer ein guter Rückzugsort.
Once again a great stay with our granddaughters in Basel. a lot of experiences and seen. then the June evenings are always a good retreat.
