Pfalz Basel is 6.2 km from the homestay and Architectural Museum is 6.3 km away.

The owner is really-really-really pretty and nice lady. She met us earlier than the check-in time, and even drove us into town nearby when we needed. I wish blessings to this place, and I am sure that if I come, I will only come here. Bless the owner! May Jesus fill her heart with joy and peace, and salvation❤️🌷 The apartment exceeded my expectations, it had its own kitchen, shower, washing machine, hair dryer and a very, very comfortable bed. The photos looked less attractive than reality, so I'm pleasantly surprised🌷❤️!

    Great hostel with very friendly and helpful staff! As a cyclist I was really happy with the bike storage. The hostel is big, but does not feel crowded, and the dorms are quite and spotlessly clean. There are all kinds of facilities: A large kitchen, study room, bar, laundry room. Walking distance to the train station.

    Ladina and Michelle were super helpful and provided lots of useful into. The pillows were very comfy and it was nice to stay in a more traditional property with a nice terrace. Loved the high ceilings and wooden floors, and having the coffee machine was also great. A very comfortable apartment with great hosts.

    Corinne was very friendly and is a good host. The property is situated in a different street which runs parallel with the main street. Regarding the noise this is a big advantage. Everything is well organized and clean. Beds are proper and compfy. Breakfast is also good with free coffee. It is an old house which has is charmes. It is a very good value for money and I have no complaints. Will definitely go back here.
