Tökéletes választás volt a baseli hosszú hétvégénkhez
Pros:

Rendkívül jó elhelyezkedés, gyönyörű kilátás, kedves és segítőkész személyzet, nagyon kényelmes ágy. Mindent egybevetve, számunkra tökéletes volt.

Cons:

Csak ha muszáj belekötni valamibe: a zuhany hőfokát nagyon nehéz volt állítani, szorult a csap.

Bien situé mais déçue pour le stationnement
Pros:

la chambre était agréable, le cadre de l'hôtel également

Cons:

j'avais sélectionné cet hôtel parce qu'il précisait qu'il avait un parking et en fait, non, il a fallu se garer dans un parking privé et nous en avons eu pour 24 euros de frais supplémentaires
