Good Location - Don’t Stay in Room 25
Returned from full day of sightseeing, FOB didn’t work (10:30 PM). No one answered call via call button. Thankfully, fellow guest let me in. WiFi is complete rubbish in common areas. Groceries were discarded prior to my departure (staff gave me complimentary salad-yum!). No electrical outlets/USB by beds. And, yes beds are RIGHT next to each other-bit weird. Pros? Place is clean, good location, nice vibe and staff are helpful. Free metro pass. Skip overpriced breakfast! (Hopefully, you won’t get room 25. Long stay resident with ticking clock-you’ll feel like you’re in Peter Pan’s Neverland.)

The hostel is very nice, the BaselCard is great. Free coffee, tea and juice in the morning. Nice kitchen as well. My only complaint is that the toilet paper was only replaced in the morning and usually it finished very fast.

Bel posto, molto curato con tante piante e arredamento caldo in legno. Il personale molto amichevole e gentile. Ho dormito in una stanza condivisa e anche quella è dotata di tanti confort per garantire comunque la privacy, ho dormito molto bene entrambe le notti! In generale ci sono tanti piccoli dettagli pensati bene. I prezzi della colazione per un italiano sono un po’ alti ma hanno delle ottime cose fatte in casa e sono in linea con i prezzi di Basilea.

무난
도미토리 샤워실 공간 화장실 따로 있는게 좋았어요 샤워실도 세개라 붐비진않아요 헤어샴푸는 달려는게 있고 샤워용은 없으니 챙기세요 사물함 크게 있어서 자물쇠 달면 귀중품 넣기용이합니다 사람이 차있을경우 인원수랑 안맞아서 다른방 분이 건너와 사물함을 써서 처음에 다른분이랑 공유해야했습니다. 옷걸이는 사물함당 두개씩 걸려있어요 하루만 묵고 가는분이 많고 제가 있을때만 그런건지 특히 여성전용 도미토리는 잘 안차는거같아요. 널널하게썼어요 침구정리와 수건교체가 기준을 모르겠어요 사람들 있을때 하루이틀은 되더니 중간에 사람들이 나가고 혼자쓰게된 시간이 많았는데 혼자쓰게 된 후부터는 침구정리랑 수건 교체를 따로 안해주시더라구요. 대부분 하루묵다 가는분이 대부분이라 좀 길게 도미토리쓰시는 분들은 수건은 매일 따로 가서 받으셔야할거같아요. 코드선이 멀리있거나 위치가 안좋아요 식당주방 쓸수있고 대부분 조리도구 접시 등 다 갖춰져있어요 위치 역이랑 가까워서 좋아요. 약국이랑 마트 까페등 가깝게 위치해있습니다. 개인적으로 의사소통 문제로 결제문제가 생겨 있는내내 신경쓰여서 좋은느낌은 받지 못했습니다. 직접결제한 직원과의 연결이 어려웠던점 아쉬워요. 결국 묵는 기간에 해결 못하고 추후 예약업체와 문의해서 해결했습니다. 개인적인 의견으로 도미토리룸은 하루 머물기는 괜찮은거 같아요.

Rolig hostel nært stasjonen.
Vi var på gjennomreise og trengte et hotell nært stasjonen. Dette var perfekt. Vi fikk en liten leilighet med to soverom (ikke kjøkken) og bad. Litt gammelt og slitt, men perfekt beliggenhet i forhold til stasjonen. Rolig område. Meget hyggelig betjening og fine fellesarealer. Felles kjøkken der man kan lage mat.

部屋は清潔で、キッチンも自由に使えてとても便利でした。ただ、設備の説明が最初になかったのでフリーの水があることに最終日に他の人が利用しているのを見て気づきました。最初にこのサーバーは何か何度も聞いたのにスッタフの方は一言もそれについて教えてくださいませんでした。最初の日に説明してもらえたら、もっと便利だったのに。残念です。それ以外は全然問題ありません。快適に過ごせました。また利用させていただきます。

Gostei! Recomendo!
Gostei do fato do hostel ser perto do trem e fácil de chegar (e do ônibus que vai para o aeroporto): basta pegar uma reta a partir da porta dos fundos do SBB, A mocinha que me atendeu foi sempre muito gentil e atenciosa na hora de conceder as informações. Pedi para reservar a cama do andar térreo da beliche e quando cheguei a cama estava lá reservada. Isso foi importante para mim. Poder usar a cozinha é bacana. O hostel é limpo, confortável e tem armário para poder guardar a bagagem. Uma coisa que observei foi: no site dos hoteis.com o horário do ingresso no hostel é um e lá (a partir das 15 horas) é outro. Isso não chegou a ser um problema, pois existe um quarto onde nós hóspedes colocamos a bagagem para em seguida partimos para o passeio. Outra coisa bem legal é você se hospeda na cidade e ganha um cartão para poder usar o transporte público em Basel sem precisar se desfazer dos seus francos suíços; cortesia da cidade.

Modern, clean, staff were helpful and kind, and moderately inexpensive. The only negative was the walls were thin which we had loud neighbors the first night but it was a great place to stay.

Perfekt beliggenhed i forhold til tog og Flixbus. Rent og lækkert. Okay morgenmad. Elsker Basel kortet, som giver 50% rabat i bla. Zoo og med bus og sporvogn.

Når man bare skal have en seng at sove i
Man får en seng på en sovesal, og så er det ikke godt at vide, hvem eller hvor mange, man skal sove sammen med. På min sovesal var der en anden dansker, der ligesom jeg stort set ingenting sagde, så det var fint nok. Ellers ville jeg nok sige, at det kunne være en smule utrygt at sove sammen med en masse mennesker, man slet ikke kender. Jeg var der kun en nat. Er man en familie eller en gruppe venner, og man kan få sovesalen for sig selv, er det en billig måde at overnatte på. Morgenmaden er ikke inkluderet i prisen.
