Pros:

I was really happy with my stay . Location was great and the room was sparking clean . Seemed to be newly renovated. But the best part was the great staff , especially in the restaurant bar. Really fun and friendly people.

Great location (especially if needing to travel from the bus station) and nice staff.
Pros:

This is a great hotel and the staff are friendly and helpful. We stayed in Glasgow for two nights before heading out on a Rabbie's excursion to the Isle of Skye. The hotel is right by the bus station so very convenient. We also were able to store our luggage while on our trip as we stayed at the hotel again for another night after we returned. We were easily able to walk many places in Glasgow from the hotel as well as take the subway. Convenient to a lot of areas. Nice rooms and good location.

Cons:

This was on us but we booked during the Commonwealth Games so the price of the hotel was a bit more than I think it would have been normally so not as good of a value but again we didn't realize until we were planning our trip that the Commonwealth Games were on.

Worked for our purpose
Pros:

Central.

Cons:

Bathrooms were tiny; bath with shower rather than walk in shower; water glasses were not washed with housekeeping so the same dirty glasses were left after first use- this is poor.
The hotel did not replenish the drinking water every day
No safe in room!!!!!!!!
