The location is bit far from the center but the surrounding environment is peaceful. Staffs are helpful and supportive. However, there is no usb charging port so bring Swiss charger!

Very beautiful hostel in Basel. Best quality/value coherence. Super green and stylish design. You have a lot of space where to rest: lobby, terrace or garden. I lived in the quadrille room on the second floor. Shower and toilet are located on a general floor, nor in your private room, but still place is spacious and you have a lot of variants where to go

The location is great, just over 5 minutes walk from the tram station, close to the center but very quiet. There is a canal that was used for paper manufacturing right in front of the hotel, and a related museum is nearby. The toilets and showers are very clean, and the staff were very kind. You can also borrow a hair dryer at the front desk (10 francs deposit). You will need 5 francs and 2 francs coins for the luggage storage and the room lockers (which will be returned later), so it may be a good idea to prepare some cash.

The hostel is located near the Rhine, downhill from the tram stop. The breakfast is sufficient. Towel rental is 3 francs (large towel). The deposit for the key to the locker in the room is 2 francs, for the locker in the basement 5 francs, your own lock will not work. If you do not have francs, you will not be able to change them at the hostel. You must make your own bed at the hostel. You can take coffee for breakfast
