I really enjoyed my stay in this hostel. The staffs were so friendly and very ready to help💖 The breakfast was sooo yummy and fresh . And the fact that they can communicate in English was so reliving for a foreigner 💝 I think I should write a book of all the good things But anytime am in Basel Switzerland this is my home.

I enjoyed my stay very much! It was everything I was looking for. After hectic Milan I enjoyed this peaceful and silent atmosphere. Also had really great conversations with others. Would definitely come back again 🩷

Beds are very comfortable. I do wish that the toilets were separate for men and women though. Also the shower is basically a tap in the wall that aggressively shoots water out at you.
