genau was ich brauchte

ideal beim Bahnhof, Tram und Bus. Das Hotel ist basic und so ist der Preis also alles stimmt. Die Strassenseite ist laermig weil nachts gebaut wird, Ich wurde in ein Gartenzimmer verlegt wo es total ruhig ist. Das Hotel ist zu empfehlen, die Rezeption ist freundlich, wer keinen ueberfluessigen Luxus braucht ist hier gut versorgt.

Hell, ruhig, leider nicht sauber

Helles und ruhiges Zimmer, relativ gross für ein Einzelzimmer und sympathisch. Das Einchecken (maschinell) ein bisschen kompliziert. Die Sauberkeit liess deutlich zu wünschen übrig: Staubflocken im Schrank, ein schmutziges Glas, der Wasserkocher ... siehe Bild, Kacheln im Bad mit verdächtigen Spritzern.

Horrible para hacer el checkin! Localización buena

Hotel cerca de la estación Basel SBB. Supermercado Aldi y cafeterías cerca así como el tranvía y bus. Nos fue difícil hacer el checkin porque el horario de recepción es muy limitado. Hay una máquina en el exterior para hacerlo y nos fue complicado al realizar el pago. Apenas aceptan tarjetas y tuvimos que buscar a un chico que pasaba por ahí para que nos lo pagase y nosotros dárselo en efectivo. Horrible experiencia en este aspecto!! Deberían de tener la opción de poder pagar también en efectivo CHF o más posibilidades de pago con tarjeta. Llevaba tres y ni una! Los colchones de las dos camas individuales de muy mala calidad! Nos levantamos con dolor de espalda. Y no hay aire acondicionado. Es una sauna en verano!! Deberían de al menos dejar un ventilador. La recepcionista Rachel fue simpática, comprensible y eficaz en cuanto a preguntas. Hay hervidor de cafe/té en habitación de cortesía, nevera y el wifi es bueno. Solo hay servicio de habitaciones entre semana. El desayuno son 10 CHF y es para llevar.

I couldn't get my laundry done on weekends. Only towels were changed at the front desk. The location is not bad. There are many supers around. However, the interior is like an ordinary house.

Godt og ordentligt budgethotel

Det var ikke så nemt at tjekke ind på maskinen. Vi måtte have telefonisk hjælp Men værelset var rent, pænt og stort. Sengen god. Der var køleskab og vandvarmer. Nemt at opholde sig på værelset. Et budgethotel, hvor man fik meget for pengene. Beliggenheden var hos for os, der kom med tog

Low-Budget Übernachtung in Basel

Das Apaliving Basel ist zwei Tramstationen vom Bahnhof entfernt. Der Self-check-in am Display vor dem Eingang ist etwas knifflig und erfordert Geduld. Die Zimmer sind genügend gross und einfach eingerichtet: Bett, Tisch, Stuhl, Nachttischlampe auf dem Fensterbrett, Dusche, WC, Lavabo, alles war sauber. Die Reception war nur vormittags bedient, die Receptionistin war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Alles in allem ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
