Basel Backpack

Decent hostel that was cheaper than the others in Basel. i was expecting less tbh. Staff were good and let me check in early. Location is close enough to the train station and buses run nearby. Dorms were ok. there were lockers but no privacy curtains. kitchen was reasonable. not much of a common area and i didn't see anyone socialising.

Friendly and helpful staff. Lockers provided in the room have enough space to fit a small suitcase and more. Spacious showers (but body wash / shampoo is not provided). Self check-in process (after reception hours at night) was easy to follow.

For a budget place this is beyond expectations. I got travel pass, the toilets are clean, the showers too, the room clean and quite comfy. I also allowed to kept the luggage on the hostel after check-out for couple hours before my next train. And when I came back to took my luggage, I still allowed to charged my phone and had some water. Other of my requests like late check-in + borrowed plug 🔌 are seamlessly done. I truly recommend you to come here.

I like the hostel the person was kind and helpful. The issue i face is my bed didn't have socket to plug a charger it was right behind the bed arm where i can't possibly plug in. Overall it was a good location

There were a lot of great things about this hostel. The BaselCard is included with the stay, which provides free transport around the city and discounted entry for many attractions. The service was great and very friendly. The rooms were adequate and clean. The bathrooms were clean, but they weren't individual. My only complaints are that the hostel was not very social and the WiFi did not work in my room.

Massive bed which was very good, but it made it a bit hard to make the bed. Everything was fine, nice kitchen, got everything you need to cook simple things. One thing is that it's a little bit old, and it takes around 30 mins to get to city centre without a bike.

Very good organisation Very Very clean, staff was professional,helpful. Easy for transport. Nice location. 100% Recommended Basel Backpack 🎒 👌🏻

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.
