The staff on the front desk were exceptional. They went out of their way to make us more comfortable after arriving from Berlin on the overnight train. The room was large and with a very cool and funky interior design. The breakfast was very good. The position is perfect for a short visit to Basel.

The location is excellent. a lot of attention is paid to the cleanliness of the room.The beds are comfortable. Everything is so quiet.Even though the bathroom is shared, the owner takes special care of cleanliness.I have never experienced a bathroom that is so clean and that smells so nice . Although we did not meet the owner, I get the impression that she cares a lot about making sure that her guests leave satisfied. Thank you for your hospitality, we will definitely come again.

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.
