Five irish students of to glasgow, so we didnt mind were we stayed as long as it was cheap, or so we thought we didnt! Here goes: 1) When we arrived at the ''hotel'' we were greeted by a foreign receptionist, who was all smiles when she was getting her money, but her card machine had broke. She then claimed... More

This is a budget hotel at its worst. Stayed there very recently and although I didnt expect a lot for the price you should still expect to get the room cleaned and clean towels every day. Hotel is very tired needs decorated throughout. The shower was not clean and I had to spend sometime cleaning it with anti bacterial cleaner... More

You will note from my previous reviews that I try to be as fair as possible and this will continue in this review. In my honest opinion there cannot be a worse hotel in Scotland. This place makes Fawlty Towers look like the Ritz. On arrival we were told that they do not accept cards so we had to pool... More

Do not stay here!!! The receptionist or host, whoever she was, was unwelcoming and clearly didn't give a damn! We weren't even directed to our room until we asked, check out time wasn't mentioned and neither the fact that the en-suite we'd paid for was disgustingly dirty and cold and the shower was leaking! When asked if there was a... More

Avoid this one especially if you have kids. Don't let the 3★ deceive you this is less than budget. upon arrival I rang the bell and waited for five minutes before it was answered in the freezing cold and driving snow. We were not met with any form of apology or even an explanation but with more of a gloomy... More
