Novelty stay in train compartment, a bit small but expected and a little uncomfortable but a single night was good enough, with other options available and a fair price you can't argue to much, Camping and caravan theme throughout, parking on site and free breakfast all included with the price. This is hostel/ backpackers place so private toilets and showers may not be available depending on your stay type, Location is not the best some walking needed for shops and restaurants but not too far away from tram service. Overall good place to have a short novel stay at a fair price

I liked the concept of staying in a trailer or train car, although my friend and I found it to bit cramped and not so practical at times. It took us a while to find the ladder which could be used to climb into the top bunk, and then even longer to find where to stand it in order to climb into it. We both slept well and enjoyed the buffet breakfast, and had a pleasant stay overall.

Great outstanding idea of hotel/bed&breakfast! Absolutely special kind of stay! A little bit like adventure, but without any Risks... Even the rain is switched of during Camping. Especially with kids it feels like adventure for them, but then it could be tricky with playing kids and other guests... (Noise) Will be back whenever...

Great concept, really cool design. Great for all ages, from families to solo travellers. Staff was friendly, place was spot on clean at all times, and breakfast had a lot of options. For mentor only negative was the sleeping compartment (train) only had a tiny window, so it got hot and claustrophobic fast. Overall great once in a lifetime experience that o would recommend others.

Basecamp is a unique facility and certainly worth a visit. Unfortunately, the campers that are for rent seem to need a general overhaul. Right now at least the one we used was neither really clean nor in a good shape otherwise. E. g. door of fridges were closed with duck tape, light switches, too. Wardrobes were quite dusty inside, overall a bit shabby. For 130 Euro a night (including breakfast, 3 persons in one camper) I would have expected more. I also felt that because of this, the full potential of the place is not used. Shared toilets were not really cleaned often enough during the day and there was a strong urine smell in the men's toilet. Breakfast was excellt and despite the mentioned negative experiences I would come back. Just for the fun of it.

Bin ja häufiger unterwegs und jetzt seit mehreren Jahren wieder mal in Bonn. Schon damals war ich im Base Camp und auch dieses Mal war es klar, wieder dort zu übernachten. Kenne kein Hotel, das so originell und mit so viel Liebe und Ideen eingerichtet ist. Vom Komfort zwar eher auf jugendherbergsniveau aber dafür einzigartig und auch die anderen Gäste haben alle ihren Spaß an der Unterkunft. Sind zwar vorwiegend junge Familien oder auch Schulklassen hier zu Gast, aber auch Menschen wie ich über 60. Organisation und Sauberkeit sind super, Frühstück gut und auch ab 22.00 Uhr Ruhe im Laden. Denke beim nächsten Bonnbesuch wieder hier. Außerdem fährt die S-Bahn auch in sehr kurzen Abständen.

Besonderes Hostel in verkehrsgünstiger Lage

Es ist ein besonderes Hostel, wo in einem alten Schlafwagen, unterschiedlichen Wohnwägen oder einer Skigondel ( mit richtigem Doppelbett übernachtet wird. Das ganze steht in einer alten Halle. Auf der Empore wird morgen ein Vegetarisches Frühstück in Buffetform angeboten. Ich hatte erneut ein Schlafwagenabteil für mich alleine. Das ist Recht praktisch,da man auf dem oberen Bett seine Sachen ablegen kann. Ich würde auch wenn man zu zweit im Schlafwagen übernachtet, immer zur Variante 2 Zimmer = 2 Abteile raten, um diesen Vorteil einer Ablagemöglichkeit zu haben. Mronen Recherchen nach, war der Preis dafür gleich. Die Wände in so einem alten Citynightline sind Recht dünn, man hört Gespräche und in meinem Fall auch schnarchende Gäste über mehrere Abteile. Ohrstöpsel vielleicht mitnehmen. Das Frühstück ist ausreichend und falls nicht includiert für 12 Euro einschließlich Getränke. Brot / Brötchen sollen Bio sein, sehen aber aus wie von Discounter. Zum satt werden reicht es allemal. Es gibt dort einen Gästekühlschrank. Direkt neben der Halle ist eine vielbefahrenen Bahnstrecken mit Personen und Güterverkehr. Vorteil ist die verkehrsgünstige Lage mit der Stadtbahnhaltestelle Ollenhauerstrasse als nächstes Verkehrsmittel oder aber der DB Halt UN / Vereinte Nationen ( ca doppelt so weit ), nur 1 Station vom Hbf entfernt ist. Somit ist das Hostel Tag und Nacht recht gut und schnell zu erreichen. Einen Supermarkt habe ich in der Ecke nicht entdeckt.

Eigentlich eine tolle Idee mit den Wohnwagen. Aber leider lässt man die Wohnwagen vor sich hin gammeln. Alleine die Tatsache das man einfach irgendwelche Duftbäumchen in die Wohnwagen hängt reicht bei weitem nicht aus. Ein bisschen mehr pflege würde das ganze sicherlich aufwerten. Das Frühstück ist soweit okay für ein zwei Tage ausreichend für länger zu eintönig. Die Sanitäranlagen sind OK.Es gibt auch etwas positives nämlich das Personal die machen ihren Job super. Und man lernt nette Menschen kennen. Die Umgebung ist auch schön und zu Fuß erreichbar es gibt auch viele gute Gastronomie die man alle zu Fuß erreichen kann. LG. Sabine und Christian aus Hessen.
