Insgesamt so la la, fuer schweizerische Verhaeltnisse nicht teuer

Hotel ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen, auch das indische Restaurant im Paterre

Breakfast was excellent. It's an old building and similar to other European inexpensive hotels. Was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. Close to restaurants and trams and very central.

Our room key didn't always work.

Near to our Basel Tattoo event.

The hotel is in a very good location right next to the university and in walking distance of most of the main tourist sights. There's a decent bakery several doors down and some very good Asian restaurants within one block (seemingly very popular). Easy and quick access to/from the SBB train station --- but note that the bus stop is not where Google maps says; get out at Spalentor. The hotel building is noticeably dated (think retro), but the staff are very helpful. We could check in at 8 am after an overnight train. The room, and especially the bathroom configuration are also dated. But you can easily look past that given the large room size, and good equipment. Lots of wardrobe space, a modern desk, up to date "pillar" fan, mini fridge, and tea/coffee making facilities. The beds in particular were incredibly comfortable, and also extra long. (Clearly the management has invested in up to date furnishings, rather than the corridor carpet etc.) Also great value for Basel and good WiFi. I would absolutely return.

The theme of old setting but new fixings continued in the bathroom. The shower walls had noticeable mould, which has a slight smell. But the shower was large enough that you could use it without worrying about touching the mouldy parts. We had a room facing the street, which was fairly noisy overnight, since we had the windows open with the heat. Mainly church/clock bells, and trams/sirens in the street outside.

Cleanness

No Air Conditioning Room lights did not work

Very good location

Old hotel, room and bathroom needs renovation. There is no air conditioning and it was hot in the room.

Located between the two major train stations, most things in Basel are within walking distance. We got a Basel card at check-in so we got free public transportation during our stay and discount on museum entry fees. We got to check in early and a free baby bed.

The housekeeping overlooked a piece of underwear from the people that stayed in our room before us. Nobody told us how to get in when the front door is locked. If we hadn't bumped into a staff member, we would've missed breakfast after an early morning walk. Interior, esp. furniture, has seen better days - decades ago.

Very clean. Location perfect.

loud noices from corridor late at night, they woke us up. Other than that all was Ok.
