The hotel is conveniently located right next to Basel SBB train station, making it perfect after a tiring train journey. The rooms were clean and tidy, suitable for a short stay. However, the service was a bit lacking in information about the property and its services. The hotel's location near public transportation was very convenient, but not in a noisy neighborhood.

The hotel is superbly located right next to the main train station, making it convenient for transportation. The rooms, although a bit small for a triple, are equipped with air-conditioning. The service was pleasant, with staff taking the time to engage with guests, although prices could be considered high for the hotel's standard. The dining options were passable, but with a limited selection and odd food presentation. Overall, a decent choice for a brief stay due to its strategic location.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms had a strong smell of oil, not a clean scent, giving a feeling of being on the road. They were adequately equipped with air-conditioning, but the triple room was on the smaller side.

Service

6.0

The staff was nice and pleasant, taking the time to interact with guests and explain local events. However, the pricing strategy for this 3-star hotel, resembling a 2-star establishment, may be considered excessive.

Location

The hotel's location next to the main train station is ideal for travelers passing through Basel. The free tram ticket provided adds extra value to the convenient setting.

Dining

6.0

The self-serving dining experience had a basic selection with prepacked cheese portions and spray-painted eggs, which detracted from the otherwise decent offerings. The early morning availability was a plus.
