  • Clean: Rating of 4.2 out of 5

    "However, I found the staff to be very welcoming and the room clean and comfortable." source Venere

    "Clean and very spacious room." source Venere

    "Very clean and quiet hotel." source Venere

  • Service: Rating of 3.8 out of 5

    "Little rooms and poor services." source Venere

  • Location: Rating of 4.0 out of 5

    "I picked this location because my niece lives just around the corner." source Orbitz

    "Cold in Dining Room/Bar area. No comfortable sitting area, but certainly did the job and in the right area." source Venere

    "Apart from that the area is lovely, enough parking, the welcome/stay was fantastic." source Venere

    "Location second to none - pubs and club literally less than 5 minute walk." source Venere

    "Very good accomodation well located in the west end of Glasgow." source Venere

  • Value: Rating of 5.0 out of 5

    "So much for the great price and the nice big room." source Venere

  • Room: Rating of 3.6 out of 5

    "Some of us travelled separately & when the late arrival asked whether the rest of us had arrived he was told we had not - despite the fact that we'd had a long conversation with woman on reception and she'd shown us where to leave our luggage (in breakfast room & not secure: see note above)." source Venere

    "The room was nice, but small, and our window barely cracked open, which is not good at the end of July. So, the room did not cool off until the middle of the night." source Venere

    "We ordered a triple room and when we got there we were given a double room and a single room meaning one person was left on their own." source Venere

    "Booked a twin room which was not available on arrival and ended up in two single rooms which were cold but otherwise OK." source Venere

    "Whatever the reason for the upgrade I was delighted the building is beautiful and the room so large I could have lived in it." source Venere
