The hotel is conveniently close to the city center and offers easy access to three excellent tram lines. The rooms have properly locking windows with air conditioning, but the see-through glass may not suit everyone. The service, while supportive with tours and ticket assistance, can be described as lacking hospitality at times. The dining experience, featuring sliced tropical fruits, is satisfying.

The hotel is conveniently located near the airport bus last stop, making it easy to access. The rooms are spacious with great facilities but lack proper locking windows. The service from the reception staff was extremely impolite, overshadowing the helpful tours and ticket assistance provided. The hotel is a short walk from the train station, though a bit far from the Old Town. The dining experience offers indulgent pastries. The facilities meet expectations but could improve in certain areas.

The hotel is conveniently close to the train stations, making travel easy. The rooms, though equipped with practical bunk beds and air conditioning, were a bit cramped for us with 3 beds and 2 suitcases. The service, unfortunately, lacked hospitality, coming across in an extremely impolite manner. The location's proximity to key transportation hubs is a big plus, but the service could definitely use some improvement.

The hotel is conveniently located in the city center, making it easy to access the airport bus last stop and the Basel train station. The rooms are spacious and modern, perfect for accommodating our luggage with three comfortable beds and secure locking windows. Despite a slightly impolite service encounter, the overall experience was pleasant, especially considering the helpful tours and ticket assistance offered. The dining with fresh ingredients was a delightful culinary experience, though slightly overpriced. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything needed for a comfortable stay at great value for money.

However, the service was extremely impolite, contrasting with the hospitality of the reception staff. The location was convenient, being within a few minutes walk to the airport bus last stop but was around a 15 to 20-minute walk from the Old Town. The dining experience was average, offering local meat dishes. Despite this, the facilities were well-equipped but had a few drawbacks.
