very comfortable and freindly - woulodn;t hesistate to go back
Pros:

this was a nice small hotel in an excellent location - close to metro, mini supermarket, lovely parks/riverside walks and great places to eat . the staff were super friendly and being given 2 keys for the room was great as we had different thigs to do at diffrent times . the room was clean and the beds and pillows very comfy

Cons:

the room was extremely hot when we arrived and the first night - luckily the velux roof window opened quite wide and even though that let in a bit more noise it is not in a noisy area so it was ok. I donlt think there was any air conditioning so would worry the place may be too hot in summer ( but then it is Glasgow so will probably be fine)

great location, dated building but clean. It was very overpriced. staff were fab
Pros:

The hotel is in an ideal location for west end. There are plenty of restaurants of various cuisines and bars. There is a subway station across the road (Kelvinbridge) which will get you into central Glasgow in 4 minutes or further into the west end in a few minutes too.

Cons:

It is an old building and, whilst pleasant, there are some disappointing features. You have to try to push the toilet handle at least 8 or 9 times before it will actually flush the toilet. the shower pressure is very low and I cant speak for other rooms but in my room the shower water was either freezing cold or scorching hot . no matter how much you try to adjust the settings.
