Not bad at all
Night out in Glasgow to watch SA V England. Booked the hotel before reading some of the previous reviews and then thought should i cancel but only one night so ventured forth. On arrivel on the website said 4pm booked in but we arrived at 3pm and staff were happy to inform us that was okay and checkout was later at 11am. Staff were very friendly and helpful and room was tidy and clean though alittle on the small side would be my only issue. Also bar was closed due to upgrade apparently but there is a pub restuarnt right oppsite the hotel. Actually not a bad stay at all and would book it again BTW the parking next door is half price if you saty at the hotel and they endorse the ticket.

The staff were very friendly, welcoming and very helpful. I asked to change rooms as the room I was given initially smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The staff gave me a different room straight away, without question, which was clean, comfortable, and nicely furnished. I wasn't in any way made to feel like I was being awkward. And they gave really helpful suggestions for where I could go for food. Thanks very much to the kind staff.

I would not stay again
The hotel advertised free wifi which was false and was an inconvenience for me to get some work down. You had to pay £7 for 24 hours of free wifi or go to the restaurant/bar to access for "free". I had to use my own data as a hotspot. My room had paper thin walls and I could hear noises of the highway and the running trains. My only pro for this place is that it was conveniently located next door to the Charing Cross train station. Also not an inconvenience but I found it strange that the TV was small. I felt like I was staying in a college dorm room. There were only 2 outlets in the room for me to plug in my devices. Also the middle lift made a scary sound when the door closed or opened.
