Good place to sleep a few nights, located very close to the city center and all attractions. Kind and helpful staff. If you're looking for a quite place, with a moderate expense, this might be the right choice.

2 couples stayed 1 Saturday night in July. the location was very good, close to nightlife. we came in at 2am, but the guest house was so loud it was unbearable. there were hen parties all night long. every time some opened one of the firedoors separating halls of rooms, the door slammed shut. not recommended for anyone who actually wants to sleep.

Filthy Hell Hole!!

I only give this a 1 as there's no zero. Myself and 3 friends booked here to stay last night as we were going to the Bon Jovi concert at Hampden. On arrival my friend and I headed for our room, the lift is like a small cupboard which has "lift" stencilled on the door in felt tip pen, and you wouldn't have to be clostraphobic. Our room was filthy, stained curtains, carpet and bed linnen along with wallpaper peeling off the walls, holes in the wall, a broken shower and inches of dirt on surfaces. We immediately went down to reception to see if we could have another room but the receptionist was down right rude saying that it's a budget hotel and what do we expect, quite frankly I've stayed in cleaner hostels for half the price. Anyhow, she told us we had 15 minutes to decide if we wanted to stay or not as they had to fill the room if we were leaving, there was no offer of an apology or even an offer of someone coming to clean the room. We went back to our room and discussed whether we should stay but to be honest we really had no choice since the city was busy with the concert. Then we had a knock at the door and the housekeeper was there asking "what the problem was", she was abrupt, rude and ignorant, she immediately came in and commented that we had to tell her now if we were leaving so that the room could be cleaned and rented to someone else - yet again no hope of an apology. She also commented that we had been drinking and sitting "humming and haying" with each other over the situation, which to be frank we would have been doing regardless of whether we were drinking or not. We then asked to deal with the manager, when we answered the door to the manager she was stood with her hands on her hips - great body language!!! My friend complained about the room and we got the same crap about you get what you pay for, my friend actually ran her finger down the side of the door whilst speaking to the manager and an inch of dirt came off on her finger which she showed the manager. These people knew damn fine they could fill the rooms last night and make their money, there's no customer care here and I would advise to avoid this hotel at all costs. The room which my two other friends were staying in was okay, it was clean and modern and well decorated, however it seems to be pot luck as to whether you will get an okay room or a complete hell hole. We took photos of the state of the room and will be writing to the owner to ask for a refund but this will probably be a waste of time. I would avoid this place at all costs if you want to enjoy your stay in Glasgow, believe me Glasgow has a lot more to offer than this.
