Amazing staff
Pros:

Great stay at this hotel with my family. Staff friendly and welcoming always there to answer our questions. Hotel is in need of some tlc to get up to other Premier Inn new room standards but the rooms are clean and beds comfortable. New breakfast room is a huge bonus.

Smelly, water damaged, old, need renovated and should be shut down until then.
Pros:

Worst Premier Inn I have ever stayed at. Should not be open to guests in its current state. Awful smell throughout, particularly on the 1st floor. Water damage staining everywhere. Should be avoided until it is rebuilt or renovated.

The hotel that premier inn forgot!
Pros:

This is the hotel that premier inn forgot, it’s very run down and is in urgent need of repair, the corridors have an awful stink which lingers into the rooms, the grounds were untidy and the bedroom and bathroom were in urgent needs of some TLC. The only positive was the breakfast room which felt like a totally different place compared to the rest of the hotel with its modern decor.

Pathetic experience
Pros:

This is probably the worst hotel have ever stayed in, in Scotland. Spiders in the room, 1 bath towel between 2 guests, no option of cooked breakfast and a damp feel to the bed. Pathetic!

Great stay
Pros:

Great hotel, great location.
Comfortable, clean beds and rooms.
Bathroom a bit musty smelling, like water has been leaking. But bathroom clean.
Restricted food choices in restaurant as they’re closing for take over and refurbishing at end of the month.

Battered and bruised
Pros:

I stayed here when visiting a friend and it’s not up to the standard you’d expect from a Premier Inn in any way - the rooms are bare thread and in need of a facelift, the walls/ceiling is paper thin. There was what sounded like an elephant stomping around in the room above at 4am!

Breakfast is woeful with very poor choice and it’s not worth £10.99.

I don’t think there is much choice of hotels in the area but wouldn’t recommend this one!

Needs refurbished
Pros:

The hotel is conveniently placed right off the motorway We have stayed here a number of times over the years. To be really honest it has become really tired and scruffy looking both in the rooms and corridors. The restaurant is also very scruffy but we were told this has been sold and won’t be part of Premier Inn. Overall we won’t be using this hotel again until it has been renovated. It’s a shame as it’s really handy for motorway and visiting family

Terrible place
Pros:

Terrible place would never stay here again, absolutely stinks in all the hallways. If I didn’t know better I’d say the smell is cat wee.

The place is VERY TIRED and the shower was just a trickle this is the worse premier inn I’ve ever stayed in and staff on reception could care a less about the place AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Terrible condition
Pros:

Terrible condition of the hotel - looks like a youth hostel: smells, shower is a trickle, every part of the bedroom was dated (20 yrs old) and in poor repair. Long overdue a renovation! Don't waste your money and book elsewhere.

Parking ticket for staying at the hotel!
Pros:

Got a parking ticket even though we put our car registration in the machine. I have no idea why they need the cameras who is going to park there that is not staying at the hotel. And no-one to talk to about it at either the hotel or parkmaven.

Good experience
Pros:

Nice hotel ideal location at the outskirt of Glasgow. Hotel has a restaurant for food but its not halal. Had to travel about 8 miles for halal food. The rooms are clean and it's ideal for families. Beds were good and pillows were nice and soft. Towels were nice and soft. Rooms were clean with tea and coffee facilities. Would recommend this hotel.

Terrible, just avoid
Pros:

utter dump of a place. With a Premier Inn you hope to at least know what you are getting, but Lenny Henry hasn't been to this place in a while. Dirty, smelly, hot, grimy, tatty, no more adjectives. Curiously it was the same when I stayed at Glasgow Airport a while back. I should have learned. To charge this price for this product is poor. The breakfast was also dire.

I night by the motorway in Glasgow
Pros:

1 night stopover. Rooms facing the motor are noisy - temperature control in the room didn't work, so had to leave window open.
Staff are friendly, Breakfast good quality with a good selection. Bit surprised that the eat all you want breakfast was waitress served - expected usual buffet. On the plus side, you know that the breakfast has just been cooked.

Lovely wee hotel
Pros:

One night stay with family for an onward trip to Edinburgh to break up the journey. Really friendly staff. Leigh-anne on reception is a credit to the company. Comfortable bed. Fan in room was needed.

Horrifically hot and airless room if the sun comes out
Pros:

We visited on a hot weekend, so a little unusual perhaps but the room's window only opens a small amount, no aircon and no fan. We had to try to sleep without the duvet as sweltering. The hotel is in pretty urgent need of a refurb anyway (bathroom fittings very tired for example, the bed-sheet didn't fit properly which seems odd but got me tangled in the night) and I believe that it is planned although was told that aircon isn't. So uncomfortable was it that we tried to complain via the Premier Inn Guarantee but were shrugged off with a comment that the hotel description does say no aircon....makes me wonder what the guarantee is for really. All the staff as always at the hotel we exemplary.
