Reasonable for a city centre hotel. Car park is NCPover the road, so a little difficult if you have a number of bags.
Staff friendly and hotel very similar to others in chain

Amazingly friendly and helpful staff, excellent breakfast that's included as well as a menu with toasties (my new fave food!) Soft drinks and a small bar are available. At another place now for triple the price in another city and their toasties don't hold a candle to them. Beds were firm, and soft and firm pillow provided. The Scotia, oldest pub in Glasgow, was at end of the block. Very enjoyable stay!

Nice comfortable stay. Room was a little cold though. The shower water was discoloured so had to run it for a while before it ran clear. Bit noisy during the night with latecomers. Good breakfast, discounted 24hr parking across the road.

We enjoyed our stay the hotel was lovely as were the staff. There were 3 of us in a room so it was a bit of a squeeze in the room with the sofa bed out but apart from that will definitely stay again.x
