Schönes historisches Gebäude direkt am Bach und nah am Rhein. Gute Verkehrsanbindung, sehr nettes Personal an der Rezeption.

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.

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.

Building is amazing, well situated for the city. Staff were helpful. Bed was comfortable. Bring a 2Fr coin for the room lockers.

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

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.

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.

Einmal mehr ein toller Aufenthalt mit unseren Enkelinnen in Basel. Viel erlebt und gesehen. Die Juni ist dann abends immer ein guter Rückzugsort.
