    No air conditioner and some other small disadvantages.

    Whole appartment with kitchen box. Goog batroom. Elevator. Perfect for the price.

    No hot water in the kitchen sink, kitchen plug did not work, dishwasher was out of order - and has been for some time. The apartment stated it had a washing machine - but it is in the apartment block and come at a cost of 25CHF per day. No indication of this on the site.

    The location is fantastic, especially if you are coming via train. 2 stops or a short walk. Comfortable and modern.

    Please note, we loved this apartment, however it does face onto a busy road which became noisy early in the morning. Also, just a personal comment: the wardrobe in the bedroom had glass doors. Although it was locked you could still see everything in the cupboard. Clothes were very neatly on display, but it felt weird, and a reminder that it was someone else’s home. Kitchen cupboards were also full of various foods. We were told we could use the kitchen, but did that mean we could drink their wine and eat their food? Of course we never did, although the wine did look tempting 😄. Dishwasher was out of order. Despite all this it was a beautiful comfortable apartment that I would recommend.

    Close to the main railway station, tram right out the front to take you into the city. A fantastic Thai restaurant back towards the train station. Details on how to enter the apartment were very clear, however, it would have been easier for us had we been sent details a day earlier. We flew into the country and had issues with our SIM card activating, lucky for free wifi at the airport.

    Sometimes the wifi connection could be tricky. Challenging to sleep when it gets warm.

    The apartment looks just like it does in the photos. Great location with restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Easy to go around the city with public transportation. Fully equipped kitchen is nice.

    The host demanded from us to wash the dishes on hands but there was no hot water in the kitchen. The apartment doesn't have a TV, and a wi-fi is slow sometimes, and host doesn't replay on messages that often. It would also be great if there was one more towel per person (we got 1 pp).

    The property is on great location, has very nice interior and is really cute. It's close to the main station and the host got us Basel cards. The apartment is in quite building and the supermarket is right across the street. It is also very well equipped (especially the kitchen).

    Very bad internet connection- talked with the owner and she explained to me that there is an issue with the internet connection in the area. ( couldnt even make a whatsapp call). I arrived at new years and probably because of that the bed sheets where not ironed-- although the flat was clean. Washing machine out of order.

    Everything was nice! As it looked in the photos!

    What we didn’t like was the bed. The pillows were super thin and the blanket was smaller that the bed, so we were cold in the night and we had to use the cushions from the sofa. We also didn’t have WiFi and unfortunately the host could not give us a Basel card for discounts (wich is normal to get when you book via booking). If the host changes that, then our rate would have been 10/10!

    Location was perfect. We had a supermarket in front of the apartment, 2min walking we had an asiatic take out place where we ate dinner for a good price and super delicious. The train station was 5 min walking and the centre of Basel was about 15min walking. The appartment looked very nice and big. It was very clean.

    This booking was made as we were expecting a serviced apartment through Bookings.com. Frankly this was no more than an Air B&B (minus the breakfast). The owners lives at the apartment. The wardrobes, cupboards, pantry etc were all full of the owners stuff and the wardrobes were locked. The pillows were cushions stuffed into small pillow cases. We requested better pillows but this was declined. The apartment stated it had washing facilities but it had none. There was communal washing facitilities (for all the tenants of all apartments) but the charge was SF25 per use, i.e. A$50 per use - ridiculous. We constantly self that we were 'intruding'. This is no more than a person's apartment who is trying to capitalise on short term accommodation, making zero effort to meet the needs of the traveller. It is set up like these that bring down the entire accommodation booking industry to say nothing of the effect on how we felt about our visit to Basel. Avoid this place. Bookings.com should make a clear distinction between a serviced apartment and a 'chancers' B&B. We were away for almost 5 weeks - this was our worst accommodation place and we won't be returning to Basel any time soon.

    No breakfast

    The bed is not comfortable. There is a mobile mattress on top of the main mattress and it seems very old because it made marks on my legs when I woke up. It is impossible to use the main mattress because there is no suitable bed sheet for it. The pillow is actually two very old and worn out pillows that are joined together to form a pillow that made me sweat profusely (probably because of the poor materials it is made of). The only towel provided is not actually a towel - it is a small blanket made of synthetic material that would take longer to dry had the heating rack not been on. Check in instructions were given after check in time and the procedure clumsy which meant I spent 45 minutes unnecessarily. The WiFi is the slowest I have experienced in any rental apartment in recent years. I am an online trader and luckily most of the apps I use are advanced and so I was able to work but some apps did not and whatsApp calls are completely redundant. The host Miss Puneh demands guests "leave the apartment exactly as they found it" which is not a realistic demand. It would be nice of her had she provided sugar (there was none) so guests can enjoy the Nespresso coffee even more.

    The apartment is very clean. The price is cheap (for Basel). The building is quiet at night. A supermarket opposite and a bio shop bakery and grocery shop on the ground floor of the building. It takes around 10 minutes to reach the main train station where Bus # 50 to Euroairport leaves and arrives.
