Only issue was no air con. The lady on reception was incredibly helpful- moved me to a quieter room (where could open windows) and got some fans, but it was still like a sauna. Got zero sleep

Hotel location is close to train station, which makes traveling easy. We got a Basel card, which offers free bus/tram rides upon check in. The room is a bit small, but clean. View outside our window is great. Room is warm when we check in, so we open the window. Not too noisy. The breakfast is on top floor, and not to miss the view.

Heat wave caused our 2nd floor room to be intolerable. Husband had to sit in lobby in the night for hours. An air cond room on floor 8 was given to us for the next two nights but it was a fight. Cuddos to Kati for getting us the new room, which was lovely.

Breakfast was great. Staff were friendly. Only issue is check in confusion. 3 hotels connected and no one at our check in desk. Finally another guest told us we had to go to other hotel desk to check in. We would not have known. Need better communication
