    comfortable beds
    effective soundproofing
    basel card
    weak shower

    Check-in via the electronic kiosk was simple. My room had a comfy bed and effective soundproofing, ensuring a restful night even though located near the busy train station. The included Basel card was a nice bonus, allowing for free public transport. Breakfast options were limited but regularly replenished, and the staff's warm welcome made me feel at home. the shower pressure was weak, and I found adjusting the temperature took longer than expected. Some amenities could use improvement, like a more robust air conditioning system since it was warm during my stay. the location is perfect for train travelers, directly across from Basel Badischer Bahnhof.

    The facts without the fluff

    A gem for train travelers! Conveniently located near Basel Badischer Bahnhof, with trams right outside. Reached major attractions easily. The room was spacious and clean, featuring a comfortable bed and even a free minibar. Not to miss, the breakfast options were limited but refreshed promptly by friendly staff.

    free minibar
    unique soaps
    weak shower

    The free minibar and alligator-shaped soaps for kids stood out in the room, adding a personal touch to the stay.

    The shower pressure barely cut it, and adjusting the temperature was a hassle. I had to drink tap water after they stopped providing complimentary bottles. the air conditioning not functioning properly made the rooftop room feel like a sauna during summer. Noise can be an issue from the train station, while the walls are a bit too thin for comfort.

    tricky check-in

    the check-in was a bit tricky since the staff was not around. but the room was really spacious and the bed, oh my gosh, super comfy! love that they had alligator-shaped soaps for the kids. breakfast, while small, was refilled quickly.

    Had a fantastic stay! The staff were incredibly helpful, especially Mr Erhan. Our Comfort Double Room was spacious, well-equipped, and very clean. The mini bar and Nespresso machine were great additions. Being near Basel Badischer Bahnhof made travel so easy!

    The walls are a bit thin, so some noise was noticeable.

    The location is incredibly convenient, being directly across from the train station, making travel a breeze. The room was impressively spacious and well-equipped, featuring a comfortable bed and a free minibar. The staff were exceptionally welcoming, providing a warm vibe that made us feel at home.

    There was a noticeable noise issue from the nearby train station that affected our sleep quality.
