"This was the most disgusting place I’ve stayed ever. Do not recommend. The main door to the building would not close properly so was left unlocked. The whole apartment was dirty! There were two threadbare towels for bathing and no hand towels. The sheet on the bed looked like a mattress cover only. The kitchen was covered in grease. The cleaning staff showed up 10 minutes before check out asking us if they could clean the room! There was no air conditioning or fans. When you opened up windows to...

"Close to trams and busses, which are free using the included Basel Card; staff will keep your luggage if you arrive before check in, so you can go start sightseeing and come back later to check in.

Steinenschanze Charming City & Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very very clean, staff attentive and very helpful, breakfast included with several choices and also tea, coffee, cappuccino, etc available all the time for free. Lovely private outdoor garden for breakfast as well. Lots of shops nearby as well as the old town."

Residhotel Mulhouse Centre

8/10 Good

"Checkin was a disaster compounded by unnecessary surliness and incompetence. They demand a 24 hour pre check in online and I did that noting that I would stop by at 1 pm to drop bags and avail myself of their luggage storage option. I received an email back thanking me for pre-check in. I showed up at 3 pm and there was a family from Montreal also looking to check in early. The phone didn’t pick up then a random guy came and accosted us for being early and I explained I spelled it out in the pre check in. He said to give him 5 minutes. That turned into fifteen minutes and then some other guy showed up and accosted us again and shut the door and left us out on the street in the hot weather. I found his language to be rude and abrasive as did the Montreal family. Finally some hotel guests took pity on us and let us in and showed us where the luggage storage was and we went to get some water nearby (why that was so difficult for the hotel staff Ill never know). I don’t know why they bother with the pre-registration kabuki. Then my room didn’t have a frying pan but there was a whisk and a spatula. After three days I gave up asking. It’s unfortunate because it’s a nicely renovated old building in a convenient spot though it was interesting that they have a placard at the front desk advising guests not to argue with staff so somehow the surliness is built into the hospitality illusion they offer. It was like a surly Fawlty Towers Totally uncalled for. C’est dommage."
