The property is good and well made. Bathroom and dining area was good.
No electricity. It kept tripping as heater was connected. Heating not working so couldn't sleep whole night.. No blankets provided, only sleeping…

HOSTEL, NOT THE BEST
Camp ist nice, Kueche gut, Duschen sehr gut, dieser Bereich auch sauber!
Das Hostel Zelt, ist eine Zumutung, vorallem die durchgelgten Schaummatratzen! Keine Heizung, kein Strom....!! Never again!!!;

It was truly a hostel with group everything
The quiet of the place in the woods.
I liked the quiet of the place. However I read the info on the web that rooms had a bathroom and shower in them which they did not Also it was over a half mile to the nearest store…

Questions about Sven's Basecamp Hostel

What time is check-in and check-out at Sven's Basecamp Hostel?

Check-in is from 1:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:30 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Sven's Basecamp Hostel allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Sven's Basecamp Hostel?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Does Sven's Basecamp Hostel have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Sven's Basecamp Hostel have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book Sven's Basecamp Hostel?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
