Buena ubicación para los museos. Estancia horrible.
Pros:

La ubicación cerca de los museos que es a lo que iba.

Cons:

Cuando hice la reserva estoy seguro que la hay incluía baño dentro. Pues después de dos aviones y un bus del aeropuerto hasta cerca del hotel. Me encontré una habitación pequeña con una cama pequeña y el baño fuera de la habitación. Para lo caro que era, ni hacían la habitación (parecía más un Hostel que un hotel) Booking no me avisó y el hotel cuando lo reservé tampoco me avisó. Llegas y tienes que hacer un depósito de 100£ porqué si sin más. Las tuve que reclamar al día siguiente cuando ya me había ido a Edimburgo. No lo recomiendo muy caro, muy anticuado, lo reservas con tiempo y te dan la peor habitación para una persona con discapacidad. Una vergüenza.

Sandyford Lodge was a pretty good choice
Pros:

In a good position and very helpful staff .
I found my room very clean and it had all that I required.

Cons:

I found my bed hard ...but thats probably just my preference .Main thing was the duvet was narrow and it was hard to keep covered over at night .
Room was small but bathroom was excellent .

Great location, staff very friendly, very good hotel to stay in for anyone wanting to explore Glasgow/Edinburgh
Pros:

Right beside bus stop so was easy to get to anywhere in Glasgow within a 10-15 minute bus
Short walk to SEC/OVO Hydro
Shops, restaurants, cafes and pharmacies close by
Beds were comfortable
Staff were very helpful and kind
Lots of options nearby if you want to order food in

Cons:

Listing boasted freeview TV but it wasn’t set up properly in our room (missing Ethernet cable), tv also a bit outdated so only TV channels available
Could see where big holes were filled in walls but not a big deal

Pros:

Personal war sehr nett und bemüht. Zimmer war modern.

Cons:

Die Überdecke hatte einige Flecken, die wie Blut oder ähnliches aussahen, auch die Badfugen waren nicht so sauber. Das Frühstück war eher mittelmäßig. Die Bettdecke war leider gar nicht atmungsaktiv und wir haben sehr darunter geschwitzt.
