Good location in the West End of Glasgow, close to the Botanic Gardens and local restaurants. Good cooked breakfast. Room was small, small double bed and tiny bathroom. Room was basic and in need of some refurbishment. Overall hotel was ok for a short stay and cheaper than other hotels in Glasgow hoteGlasgow
The Room was small but it had everything that was required and it was clean. The two reception staff whom i talked with were cautious and polite, the breakfast was good and reception was helpful when i asked about buses. It is a 40min walk from Buchanan Bus Station but quite easy with google maps. The music venue Oran Mor just a five minute walk away also The Botanical Gardens just the same.
Excellent room, very spacious , great breakfast and very friendly people at the reception. The accommodation is not far from the University of Glasgow.I am a light sleeper, but I did manage to have a really good sleep at the hotel. I would definitely recommend the hotel.
Staff excellent clean room did mention at front desk toilet did not flush properly lovely breakfast quiet room would use this hotel again

Bedding is thin & low quality. Room was very tired but shower room was newly installed Parking is on street at £4.50 per hour. Good price if you arrive by public transport rather than by car unless you want to park 500 metres away.
Great location, comfy bed and hands off staff made the trip easy and enjoyable for someone extremely busy and familiar with the city.

The room was adequate. Bedroom area was clean, although beds and bedding not very comfortable and the room never really got warm. The bathroom was very sparse, lighting was terrible and the shower bottom was moldy and the shower fixture had loose pieces. The staff was friendly and the location was great. Just needs finesse, maybe 1 thing on the wall…. Also, tv reception was pixelated except on 1 channel.
Friendly and efficient breakfast service. Great location for venues, bars and restaurants. Single room was nice despite the bathroom being a tight space. Duvet was thin and rather small but otherwise no issues. I'd stay here again for sure.
Easy walk to restaurants on the West End, as well as the University of Glasgow and the Botanical Gardens. This is a boutique hotel, so please be prepared for smaller guest rooms, including small bathroom and limited closet space. Staff was very kind to us throughout our stay.
