Less than a five minute walk from the central train station, making it very convenient. Staff weren\'t helpful with giving recommendations of what to do in Basel - asked for ideas and was given a guide book and told to read it - therefore, do your research beforehand. Very very tidy and very secure - in room lockers and secure storage room a major plus. Would definitely return!Less than a five minute walk from the central train station, making it very convenient.

It was a really nice, good, clean hostel, not far from the city center. I felt really safe there, and again, it was REALLY clean and nice.It was a really nice, good, clean hostel, not far from the city center. I felt really safe there, and again, it was REALLY clean and nice....Close

...ok its in a good location, the staff are nice (its Switzerland though so EVERYONE IS NICE), the kitchen is good. But the walls must be paper thin, the bathrooms are average, the guests it attract does not conducive to fun...
Can\'t say I rate the place, but it is perfect to rest your head and cook a meal.
Also WIFI is brilliant and quite fast....ok its in a good location, the staff are nice (its Switzerland though so EVERYONE IS NICE), the kitchen is good. But the walls must be paper thin, the bathrooms are average, the guests it attract does not conducive to fun...

I really enjoyed my stay at YMCA Hostel. Very clean, friendly and helpful staff, free internet which was also very fast, great location close to the Swiss railway station, tram and bus stations. Every visitor of the hostel receives the so called Mobility Ticket which allows him to travel for free in the public transport in Basel. I'll definitely stay again at that hostel if I happen to need accommodation while being in Basel. I really enjoyed my stay at YMCA Hostel.
