"Rooms are modern and quiet but grey (including bathroom and wc). The only departure from grey is the wood colour upper side of the bed but its effect is eliminated by the office like grey carpet. They are in the process of renovating their balconies (see photos attached) which isn't a major problem for those staying for one night but I think it is unfair they don't reveal this for those booking (payment was in advance and is non refundable. I feel sorry for those who book for many days or weeks and that is not far fetched because the commute to Basel is only 35 40 minutes). My flight was cancelled on the 15th March due to an evacuation (for security reasons) at Basel EuroAirport. I got a seat on a flight the next day and I requested the receptionist to check out an 13:00 instead of the standard 11:30. She checked on her system and after a minute or so confirmed my late check out. Alas at 11:55 the cleaning lady knocked (I was in the shower and had the do not disturb sign on the room door). I explained to her (we spoke in Arabic and even joked) that the reception gave me a late check out she was not notified about. At 12:05 the phone rang and again I had to get out of the bathroom to explain to the receptionist her colleague approved my 13:00 check out and that is when I will (the hotel was not full). Breakfast had cold cuts and scrambled eggs. The latter were tasty because they are made with locally produced butter. Alas there was no herbs or vegetables of any kind in the breakfast (not even chives). I would stay there again on transits to Basel Euroairport had I found them well organised and hospitable but honestly they were not."
