I feel this place is overpriced. It is dated at a poor condition. Not very clean. Very loud. You can hear your neighbors using their bathrooms, for example. This place rates high for a convenience, but otherwise I would pass. I think you can get better value for your money elsewhere.

Easy self check-in. Simple rooms with ample amenities that is most importantly clean. Location was great as it is near to the train station and yet not noisy or unsafe. There is a small convenience store just next to it. The only inconvenience was there was no kettle in the room so you have to go downstairs' to dispense hot water. Since there are no staff in operation - be prepared to store your luggage at the train station if you arrive too early

No contact information in room if you had any questions. The QR code didnt work. Baselcard (free public transport) which ALL Basel hotel rooms are entitled to, were not issued until 8 hours after we had to email and ask for them. Only 1 Euro power socket in the entire room. Property was clean and had free tea and coffee.

For the amount of money to stay for a night, I was greatly disappointed. The bathroom hadn’t seen a proper deep clean in I don’t even know how long (you can tell with all the mildew buildup). And the pillows were not pillows. I had to grab the towels in the bathroom and use those as pillows. Considering I decided to stay the night in Basel to get some rest before another day of traveling, this was extremely upsetting

Love the convenience of the location. The floor plan was unexpected but great; charming. Loved having the two bathrooms (one full, one half). Wish it had air conditioning. It was warm and stuffy when we arrived.

I liked how convenient it was to parking. It seemed like a free parking pass was provided, however, there were no instructions and ultimately it did not work. The Basel pass was a nice touch, however, I was only there for an overnight and was not able to use it. I was unaware that there would be no reception desk. This is a huge drawback.

Such a noisy place, and had requested a quietly sited room! The hotel is just about on the road, just a narrow pavement. Also can hear the trams all through the night. Bin men early in the morning, oh and the bins have an unpleasant smell.

There was no one to help. Pushing the button outside only made a person open the outside door. But no one to talk to in order to figure out registration machine. The email they were supposed to send the day before was in German. No air. Bad lock on door. No safety whatever. Bathroom was nice!

It will do for the situation

Situation: Arrived at Basel airport to late to get train home. Website said a person would be there to great me, no person- it’s was a machine check in. The room number (A2) doesn’t match the lift & door labels (OG2)… and 1 am I was not very patient for this system. Room was clean, bed was very narrow but comfortable, breakfast was good, but odd system. Very noisy building. You can hear everyones voice in hall way, and cleaners start hovering at 8:45am.
