瑞典很美！這是第二次住這家青旅了，因為入住比較晚，提前打電話跟前台小夥子溝通，他會將鑰匙放在保險箱裏並且給你一個密碼。

Breakfast is available if requested, but it is very easy to use the fully equipped kitchen which is mostly used quite well by the guests.
Access by lift is available.
The bunks are quite wide and comfortable and there is lockable storage space.
The site is very near to public transport which is
convenient.
In summer there are eateries and drinking places right next door. There are food shops nearby.
Toilets and showers are all good and kept clean.

Recommended for young or old.
Cool "hipster" location, all good, like one should expect from a hostel. Transit pass a valuable plus. Recommended.

Staff are very friendly and helpful. Great little bar/table area downstairs to relax in. I was surprised that I could choose a double bed in my female only dorm, that was a nice bonus. Not all beds were doubles though! Hostel is slightly out of town but easy to get to the tram and the Basel Card is fantastic as it gives you free public transport. Toilets are very clean and the showers look clean and also have locks which is great.

I paid for a queen single bed room but was given a family room with 4 bunk beds. I was struggling with power outlets to charge my phones because of not enough of them around my bed. Was way different than what was shown during booking. Had to checkout and walk to Basel SBB station early morning hours like around 5:30 to 6 but did not feel safe.

Die Unterkunft war sehr angenehm. Die Musik von der Disco um die Ecke bis nach 5 Uhr morgens war zu viel. um nicht zu sagen eine Zumutung.

Friendly staff, great rooms, clean and spacious with a comfortable bed. The corridors are a bit reminiscent of an old hospital building, as are the showers and toilets. I personally think the price of just under 80.- for a single room without a toilet/bathroom is a bit too high.
