Horror hotel
This was the most terrible stay I have ever had in my life. Bar / restaurant both out of use ( not told at cheek in or stated when booking. Asked for bottle of water which I was told we Don’t have you can use your tap water in your bathroom ( which was not clean in fact the room was disgusting ) the told you can got to the shop no direction given. Also not stated that this hotel also houses refugees and homeless people again if info was given I would have not booked this Due to passed experience. I was shouted at when out side hotel by one said homeless person as I would not hand over a cigarette. Police was also arresting some else in the evening due to fighting. Not the experience I want to have more so when I have my Daughter with me.

Worth the money
Hotel is a bit dated could do with some work, especially as the roof had fell apart and a bucket was collecting leakage right outside our door. But no big deal. The room was spacious, clean and beds were very comfortable. The shower could be better but it has a bath which is not common in alot of hotels i believe. Just off sauchiehall street, behind the kings theatre so very close to everything you're needing for your time in Glasgow. Plenty restaurants and bars nearby.

Check in - Monica (staff member) so helpful, friendly, felt as if she really cared that we were happy. We used to stay when the property was a Premier Inn. Improvements have been made, but the fact that you can’t control the heating in the rooms - not good - far TOO HOT!! You can’t open windows (totally understand why). Bathroom a bit tired. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and hope to stay again. Room 1119.

Not bad at all
Night out in Glasgow to watch SA V England. Booked the hotel before reading some of the previous reviews and then thought should i cancel but only one night so ventured forth. On arrivel on the website said 4pm booked in but we arrived at 3pm and staff were happy to inform us that was okay and checkout was later at 11am. Staff were very friendly and helpful and room was tidy and clean though alittle on the small side would be my only issue. Also bar was closed due to upgrade apparently but there is a pub restuarnt right oppsite the hotel. Actually not a bad stay at all and would book it again BTW the parking next door is half price if you saty at the hotel and they endorse the ticket.
