I had a unique experience at Base Camp, which turned out to be the highlight of my trip to Bonn. The concept of staying in a train carriage was quirky and fun, and I really enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere filled with diverse guests. However, the room was quite cramped and lacked some essential comforts, and I would say it’s slightly overpriced compared to other options. Overall, it’s a fun experience if you’re looking for something different.

Staying at this hostel was quite an experience! It's creative and fun, featuring transport-themed accommodations like train cars and campervans. The rooms can be a bit cramped, but I found it surprisingly comfortable overall. The place has a quirky vibe and is well-kept, plus the breakfast was fantastic. However, the atmosphere can feel a bit strange and isolated due to the layout, which might not be for everyone.

My stay at Base Camp was a delightful surprise, transforming my initial apprehension into a memorable experience. The quirky concept of staying in a train sleeping car added charm, and the cleanliness was commendable. The breakfast was a highlight, offering a great start to my days. However, the internet connection was a bit slow in the evenings, which was a minor inconvenience.

I had a really unique stay at this hostel, which is creatively designed with various transportation-themed accommodations like train carriages and caravans. The staff were welcoming, and I found the atmosphere to be fun; however, it can be a bit overwhelming due to the sheer size of the place, making it hard to meet others. The breakfast was a great perk, but I did notice that it got pretty noisy in the evenings with all the guests. Still a quirky experience overall!

I had a unique experience at this hostel, which is essentially a creative blend of various transport accommodations. While the rooms are quirky and the atmosphere is lively, the overall experience was a mixed bag. The beds in the train carriage were quite cramped, leaving me longing for a bit more comfort. However, I appreciated the friendly service and the fun vibe around the place. If you enjoy trying something out of the ordinary, this could be an exciting choice, but don't expect a luxurious stay.
