No air conditioning and no screens on the windows when we opened them up to cool down lots of flies got in the room. The safe didn't work and we had to get it reset just to stop beeping, the keys stopped working each day. We attempted to get a refund to switch hotels after the first night but they were not amenable.

Overall a very nice hotel - ideal as walking distance to the tennis. Pros : The rooms are decorated in a business style, great English TV channels (which is rare), warm duvets, safes that work & staff are helpful, good euro b'fast so some real pros with trams,Trattoria & coffee shops nearby. Cons: Pillows look great but are pretty useless, bathrooms need an upgrade, as the hotel no longer offers dinner a small fridge should be installed in each room - cheap to run & would be ideal for water/ snacks etc.. should offer luggage store after checkout. Overall really happy with stay but if the cons were reduced it would get 5 stars !

It is conveniently located. The room was clean, neat, and comfortable. The staff was kind and helpful. The price was excellent. I would have preferred a little more variety in the breakfast offerings, which were satisfactory. Also, the towels were not of good quality. For the price, it was an excellent choice, and I would go there again.

Quick stay at hotel Alfa
Overall this stay was as-expected for a place to lay my head for one night after a long day. Clean and well appointed, the only negative was a closed restaurant (understandable with Covid staffing shortages) and a subsequent recommendation for a cafe that is always closed on Mondays (the day of my stay). Not a big deal, though and staff was otherwise very friendly. Would recommend.

Comfortable and close to tram.
The hotel is clean and comfortable. Situated right near a tram station, it was very convenient and they offer a free tram voucher for your stay. Front desk closes early, especially on weekends. We had to call the front desk to gain access and our keys were taped inside. We did not get breakfast (as promised) because there was only 2 ppl, they didn't want to prepare for just us (no explanation either).

This place was a great home base in Basel. it’s a bit far from the central area, but they give you a voucher for free tram transit, which is a great deal. The hotel room was nice too!
