Worn out, run down.
Daniel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely staff, very friendly, prompt with requests for extra towels, etc. We ended up having to add an extra night, and it was extremely easy to do so, no need to switch rooms. Will definitely stay again.

Ok’ish in Glasgow

Room nice enough but quite expensive for bed only. Room quite cold.
Gavin, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Could do better..

On the availabilities for a bar and restaurant. None. Breakfast was available but not a pleasent experience when staff members are arguing and swearing at each other... all because the eggs were finished and no one took away the banemarie and bring more for the residents... the apple juice was so watered down it was the colour of apple but tasted of water. The milk and coffee satchets in the room was out of date... bit of a shambles really... One bright spot... A fan was provided in the room and window open but secure as the room was very hot.

Good value in a central location!
Jennifer, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible hotel with appalling customer service

Terrible, staff are so, so rude, rooms dirty and outdated, full of assylum seekers. One member of staff told me to park my work vehicle in the alley next to the hotel, woke up this morning to a note on my windscreen and a maintenance man screaming and shouting at myself and my wife, absolutely no respect, I've never been spoken to so rudely in a hotel. Never stay again...
Richard, 2-night trip

Basic

It was a very basic room. A bit too warm. The bed was very comfortable. The shower was the best feature. The breakfast was cold..all in all not worth the £100 i was charged.

A great hotel, great room, a stone throw from a lovely restaurant and the railway, parking is abit of a nightmare but that’s to be expected in Glasgow .
Liam, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very dated hotel

The room was a similar price to better, more modern hotels in the area. The staff are pleasant and helpful. However, the rooms are in dire need of refurbishment. id look elsewhere if comfort id desired

4/10 Fair

The room has bedbugs. I've taken a photo and video of it. Location is good. Staff are very friendly. The carpet in the hallway isn't laid down properly so it's uneven in places.
