JENNIFER, NEW BEDFORD

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
My room was not the cleanest it could have been with mold in the shower and random splotches on the walls. The neighborhood while awesome because it’s lively and young but the trade off is that this also means it’s loud at night … like till 3, 4am . I’m hoping I just got a tired room and that the others are fine.

Great located hotel.
Was looking for a triple family bed room. This was perfect for our stop over in Glasgow. Right next to the Botanical Gardens. Byers Road and Glasgow University.

Older But Desirable
Older apartment house type accommodations. I had three heavy bags to take up to my third floor single room. The interior bathroom was probably 3 x 8 ft….felt a bit pinched. Most rooms in independent hotels have 24” televisions and don’t carry Sky Sports…a must during the biggest sports week in Scotland during The Open Championship. Management were attentive and above average in skills. A good British style breakfast is served daily the subject property is located in the West End not far from the University of Glasgow and is accessible to the subway !

Good location in walking distance from various sites and restaurants. Wish I had upgraded from twin room, which had an odd layout and was on the top floor with no elevator. Quiet and clean enough. Go to breakfast somewhere else..

Short break in Glasgow
Pleasant hotel that was in a perfect location for our needs. Very quiet. The room was very warm overnight despite turning down the radiator and opening the window. Mattress a little too firm for our liking but that is a personal choice. Breakfast was good and the young man serving tea/coffee was pleasant, polite and efficient. Breakfast room was very clean with nice furniture.

Would recommend!
The location is great for sight-seeing--whule it's near main roads, it's quiet and not crowded. Check-in was easy, the staff was helpful, and our room was comfortable.

Perfect west-end, post-gig crash pad!
Absolutely brilliant hotel. I always judge a place by how the bathroom is and I’m pleased to report it was spotless, the shower was a good size (good if you’re plus size) and the water pressure was great. Knocked one star off as the bed was a bit lumpy, but I won’t grumble too much. Loads of free on street parking (weekends only) if you arrive at night after pub chucking out time. And it’s a perfect crash pad for after gigs as the front desk is open overnight.
