I've visited the complex several times, but this time was the best. It has under gone a complete make over and for the better too. The toilet and bar facilities are much bettter, very clean and staff are helpful and friendly. As a gay guy I enjoyed being able to relax in the company of others, I soon got chatting... More

Just enjoyed a weeks stay at the Basement Studios, and we will certainly be coming back. The rooms are to the same standard as any other gay resort in GC, plus they come with a handy towel rack ;-) Staff are lovely, friendly and helpful - lovely full breakfast. Did not notice the drinks prices, all cheap compared to being... More

have recently returned to the Studios, after about a year to find the whole complex has been refurbished,and really well, sometimes money gets thrown at establishments, without any thought for the clientele, well pleased to say not here, the standard and quality is to a very high standard, without taking away Basements unique atmosphere and selling points!. Staff are friendly... More

New layout - reception on right as you enter from street near Yumbo. Extra apartment (where old reception used to be). No less clean than previous... More

The biggest bug bear about this place is the drinks. Water at €2.50, beer at €4. Your not supposed to bring your own drinks or food in but people do, especially water as its a rip off here, you can get the same water in the supermarket down the road for 40cents! If drinks were reasonably priced, like the food... More

And what a change the new owners have made, excellent facilities, clean and busy with day guests. i guess the word... More

Stayed from Feb 1 to 4 2013. Was surprised with the comfort, quality and service. Of course this is not a traditional hotel but more like a small private club for gay people to enjoy. Pluses: -great location across the street from the Yumbo Center - Full complimentary breakfast served every morning with a smile - The fact that non... More

As regular visitors to this complex , we were clearly concerned last year when the complex changed hands and changes were made to the staff .It would have been a great shame if Basement Studios had lost any of its niche appeal .. Therefore when we arrived on Christmas Eve for our annual migration (we always try and fly south... More
