Guest reviews
Fabulous
Had a lovely stay - would book again. Highly recommended
Liked: Great location for visiting Basel. Unique apartment, finished nicely and quite comfortable. The host, Violet, was a very pleasant person and very easy to communicate with. We initially reserved only one (1) night bc of concerns about stairs, which turned out to be a non-issue, and ended up staying four (4) nights. Highly highly recommend
Disliked: Nothing
ok
Liked: Location good Breakfast not included Hostess helpful
Disliked: 3 floors of circular staircase with heavy bags, no lift Almost no electrical plugs worked
Liked: Small but very cozy appartment right in the city center. All clean and tidy, the host Violet is kind and unproblematic, she let us stay a bit later on checkout and leave our bikes downstairs until we had to catch our train. Thanks a lot, Violet!
Liked: It was great place. I will come again. Thank you
Disliked: The place is in middle of the town. Everything is nearby.
Avoid this place
Disliked: The host showed up over an hour late to hand over the keys — we had to wait outside in the street as she would keep saying "im on my way" every time. When she arrived we said something about it, but the response was shocking: she raised her voice, turned aggressive, and actually threatened to cancel our reservation on the spot. We were very stressed, and the delay cost us a pre-booked tour. The apartment added insult to injury: - The "AC" is a portable cooler requiring a hose out the window — so it stays open all night. Between street construction and a bar downstairs, sleep was nearly impossible. The unit barely cooled the room regardless. - The bed is crammed between a wall and a piece of furniture, making it a struggle for one person to get in and out. - The kitchen light and coffee maker didn't work. Would not recommend under any circumstances. ***In response to the host's reply: Regarding the wine: the signage was not clear. Regardless, I was willing to pay — she said she would send a payment link and never did. Accusing me of "refusing to pay" for a charge she never actually sent is inaccurate. Regarding the arrival time: the platform chat shows I informed her on the morning of May 27 that we would arrive between 2:00 and 4:00 pm. She replied "Thank you, Paula. See you later" — confirming the window. There was no miscommunication. Regarding the wait: after I notified her we had arrived at 3:13 pm, she said she would take 30 minutes and took over an hour and 15. I messaged her repeatedly asking if she was coming or whether we should find somewhere to leave our luggage — she kept saying she was on her way, leaving us no option to go anywhere. Regarding her attitude: she arrived and said "thanks for waiting." I replied that she had taken over an hour when she said 30 minutes. That is when she became aggressive — not the other way around.
Nice cosy appartment right in the centre of historical Basel
Liked: Nice cosy appartment right in the middle of the old city of Basel. Just a few steps from all the historical highlights. Violet is a very helpful friendly host.
Disliked: No complains
