Location in old town was really convenient. 100m approx from Marketplatz, where a lot of trams run very frequently. Unit is approx: 15 mins walk from Basel SBB station, downhill and fairly even for wheely bags. Coop market 100m away also. Unit was very comfortable, new kitchen utensils to cook a meal, oil and good quality ground salt and pepper. The washing machines on the 5th floor run via an app which was easy to follow.

This was an emergency booking following a cancelled flight. I wasn't alone and the reception staff must have had a hectic afternoon and evening, but they were very professional, patient and helpful throughout my stay.

The room is spacious and tastefully decorated, featuring a smart TV and high-quality bathroom amenities. Everything you might need is provided. The kitchen is shared but well-equipped—we cooked there several times. It includes an oven, microwave, fridge, electric stove, and cutlery. A bottle opener and corkscrew would be a welcome addition. Although check-in is self-service, the staff was very friendly and offered great recommendations for dining and sightseeing. We visited several of the suggested spots and had a lovely experience overall.

The services were even better than I had imagined: everything was very clean, very efficient and I was provided with all the things that I needed. The location was ideal, some minutes away walking distance from the cental train station as well as from a public transport stop for the city center. The staff was extremely polite with me and amazingly helpful to all the requests of mine. I would totally recommend it and stay there again!

This was a very clean, decent hotel and for a pretty good price by Swiss standards. The room was spotless and the bathroom seemed newly renovated with a powerful, warm shower. The location was a 15min walk from old town and around 25 from the sbb which was fine for me but there are trams nearby if you don't fancy it.
