“De Basis has a distinctly welcoming atmosphere, emphasized by its friendly staff and remarkably clean facilities; its central Zwolle location also makes it ideal for exploring. The on-site bar, Bennie's, tempts with its varied menu and inclusive options, and the private rooms are thoughtfully equipped for families. It's a comfortable, well-situated base for experiencing the city.”
