Very well located apartment, pretty much right in the centre and close to the metro. Clean and modern, everything you need for a few days away. There isnt a lift, fine for us but may be an issue for anyone less mobile. Bed really comfortable, can hear some street noise but not enough to be a bother. We liked the keypad entry system, meant we didnt have to worry about who has the key. There was a powercut due to a fire in a nearby buliding so we had to pack up with our phone torches and move to another apt 10 mins walk away on our last day, but this totally out of their control and handled well communicating with us, clear instructions for next apt and someone there straight away to get us into the building and access our apt. Would stay again and recommend for a Glasgow getaway.

Apartment is fine and very comfortable. On the downside it is 10 min walk from the nearest car park. My room was on the 3rd flight of stairs and there is no lift.There is 80 stairs to the top so is tiring if you have heavy luggage like me! However the apartment is in the centre of Glasgow with everything around you shops/restaurants etc

Very convenient location. Huge room which was great! Laundry is odd but we used the heater to dry the clothes as the dryer portion of the all in one doesn’t work. The caretaker was also great.

We know this area and market really well. We lived/worked in Glasgow for a couple years and frequently visit friends. SO, the good, the bad and the ugly of our 1 night stay. Good: the units (we got to see 2) are modern and well furnished. Modern appliances. Comfy bed, although we slept horribly as explained below. Bad: we had to move rooms on arrival because the first room was stifling hot and the Nest could not be adjusted because there were no controls. We called, Claire, she was very apologetic, and moved us to a new room. HOWEVER, the Nest controls were missing from that room as well! We learned after we had moved in but this room was cold and we could handle that. Ugly: The “new” room looked ok. We quickly learned that there was no way to turn off the light in the WC. Kinda funny at 5pm; pretty awful at 3 am going to the loo. Also, the new room faced West Nile Street which runs 24/7. The windows in the new room were/are beyond filthy. The night sounds coming off West Nile are unrelenting. ALSO, the curtains didn’t kill the lights. Finally one of the ceiling lights in the main room was failing so it was flickering which was really annoying and hence unusable. So that’s our tale of woe. Nobody’s on site so you’re on your own.
