The host was incredibly polite and friendly. He patiently answered all of my questions. The bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen were all spotlessly clean. The kitchen supplies exceeded my expectations, with spices, teas, coffees, a coffee machine, numerous pots, wine glasses, and plates. You can cook any type of meal you desire. At the same time, there are multiple supermarkets within a 5-minute walking distance. The street was very quiet at night. Despite being an old building, we slept very comfortably at night. Moreover, you can reach the city center in just 5 minutes by tram number 3. It's a fantastic place to stay in Basel. Additionally, the internet worked very well. PS: You can let your bags earlier than check-in time. This flexibility is very important when traveling with backpacks. Thank you for everything.

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.
