I arrived late close to midnight. Could not access the room with the code provided. Hotel did and still has not responded to phone calls, emails or contact via hotels.com. i ended up sleeping in the basement on a mattress and am now at the train station and have not showered.

The location is good and the "automated check-in" is very handy. However it definitely needs refurbishing in the bathroom and kitchen. The bathtub was falling in pieces in some parts. Overall it was clean and quiet.
The old building had the effect that the guests at the upper floor when moving sounded like they were moving furniture which is very unfortunate when this happens at 4.30am.

Just the bed and the basics and nothing else.
Ideal if it is just for a night or two. Bed was fine, towels were clean and the tv worked.
Your own room and your own key. Free internet but i did not try it. So if it is good or bad dont know.
Easy of access to get your key, no late check in so if you are late no one is really worried at reception.
Negative found it hard to park the car for fear it would be clamped or a ticket begin applied. So it can be an issue. No breakfast but you are only paying for the bed to sleep in. Shared bathroom for me is a big no and no soap or shower gel. Everything else is there. Stairs creaked so bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper.
Noted that the people running the place were changing the bed linen at 9:20 even when checkout is at 10:30 in the morning and not at 9:30. Did i get my time wrong.
It's the worst stay I had, the room had TV not working the 1st day, and too much to walk up 4th floors with the luggage, and only one bathroom which always occupied morning and night. The cleaning guys wanted to go in my room early before 9.30am.

OK for the money
Good location if you have to go to downtown or the Congress Center. A decent deal for the money. You have to climb 4
flights of stairs. No elevator. I was in a rush to book a hotel so overall OK.
Difficult to get access in. Change of booking room was not informed in advanced. Provided key code did not worked. After contacting on phone they charge apartment which was little far from place of my business. Took around more than hour to locate and get into the apartment at night in totally new place.

The room was a 6th floor walk up - once you got there it was nice. I had a problem checking in and had to call the emergency number.
Hiç muhattap yok, 10.30 Çıkmak zorundasınız ve valizleri de bırakamıyorsunuz sonra almak için. Odamız dördüncü kattaydı asansör yok h valizlerle de çok zor çıktık. Çok eski bir apartman merdivenleri ahşap.merkeze 20 dk. Tren garına 1,800 km.
Da war ein kurzes Schreckmoment, weil es keinen Vorhänge hatte und die Luxaflex abgebrochen war! Aber kurz nachdem es gemeldet war ist der Putzfrau vorbeigekommen un hat uns gezeigt wie mann die Fensterläden schliesen kann. (Etwas dumm von uns!) Das heisst Guter Service !
Pidän tällaisista koodiavaimilla varustetuista paikoista, joissa kaikki toimii moitteettomasti ilman henkilökuntaa. Sijainti 1,5 kilometriä päärautatieasemalta oli kätevä, keskustan nähtävyydet (esim. Tinguely-museo), vanhakaupunki ja joki ovat kävelyetäisyydellä. Hyvä paikka, täällä aion yöpyä jatkossakin.
Dejlig lejlighed pænt og rent
Kunne godt mangle en el kedel til at koge vand til kaffe/te
Hyggeligt område nær Rhinen og byen kan anbefales

Shabby and reeking of cigarette smoke
It was my worst stay in Basel. Besides the fact that the apartment was very shabby (paint from doors and several walls was grinded off as if it had been prepared for a renovation but that renovation never came) it reeked of cigarette smoke. On the website it says that smoking in the flat is prohibited, but you could easily smell that people had been smoking in there. The cigarette ashes were on the window sills and even after 3 days of almost constantly keeping the windows open, the smell was as strong as before. Clearly lot a one time thing. Very annoying for me and also making me regret paying 170 CHF per night!
The rest of the apartment was clean though.
Alles verlief ok, eine Email mit Schlüsselcode. Das Appartement alt, aber sauber und gut in Schuss mitten in Basel. Handtücher u.s.w. alles da! Im Summe zum Weiterempfehlen!
