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
