The location is great with walk way along the river and it is closer to most shops for those that fancy home made food. Lots of parking space and it is secure. Notwithstanding, the Wifi was rubbish. Perhaps this was just something unusual because I told the staff, that I could not use the wifi due to low strength and constant disconnection.

I could not sleep at this property! I was late, coming from London. Receptionist called around 11pm, said I can’t come in. She said it was written somewhere in website. Likely I had a friend otherwise I would have slept in the car!! So from my experience, never again I wil book or I would recommend to anyone.

Many thanks for your review however, unwarranted it was, lets start with the truth...you where called earlier on the night and you where asked expected time of arrival you advised after 10pm, Caretaker agreed to wait until 11pm on you which he didnt have to as it clearly states last check in 10pm...however, when you did not arrive by 11pm, I myself called you and you advised you where in Glasgow not London !!!! and you would be late as you were busy !! I could clearly hear the background noise and you where not druving !!!!, that is when I advised you you were too late to check in and I was not prepared to stay open any longer, we offered to stay till 11 which we did and you dediced you where too busy to inform us you would not make it by 11pm

Upon my arrival I noticed several dirty mattresses casually stacked in one corner of the car park. I also noticed that the car park hadn't seen a broom, weed brush, pressure wash or general spruce up in approximately one maybe two decades. Once i had collected my key from the office transported straight out of 1984 (like the car park hadn't received a spruce up in many decades). I was shown to my room, via a couple of PIN controlled doors similar to, I'd imagine, you'd find in a budget cut prison. Up the Baltic temperature, painted blockwork & colour barren staircase I was shown my room. In which the man (was never given a name, position or even a welcome for that matter) switched on my electric radiator. This was a nice touch had the room not been close to matching the temperature outside (3.5 degrees centigrade by my cars temperature display). I ask why was this heater not switched on an hour or so before my check-in? Next port of call was the bathroom, having completed a 6 and a half hour drive with only a single stop...now at this point I didn't really want to touch the door handle, to the bathroom, due to me spotting something. There was a brown / red smudge about the size of a pinky nail. Now was this dried blood (a possibility) or was it fecal matter.... i didn't want to find out. Gingerly I opened that door, without touching my new friend smudgy, and was greeted by a wc, sink & shower actually lifted from a prison with someone else's hair all over the sink & Soap!

Oh my, have you ever considered maybe wrighting Fiction novels ?? I think you could be onto something there !!Now, I could waste my time addressing these rather outlandish, elaborate statements, but there are people in this life you just cannot keep happy no matter what you do, no doubt even if we did pander to them, so on that note may this year bring you light heartedness, joy and contentment, We wish you well

Disliked: Amenities
The room was pretty basic - bare breeze block walls even inside for instance. The bathroom was very small and cramped.The communal kitchen was quite smelly although clean. The mattress was quite uncomfortable and the sheet on the bed was very worn and bobbly. I think the property is former student accommodation and it shows. However it was very cheap compared to other local accommodation and it was relatively clean and warm, so can't complain too much. It's OK if you just want a room to sleep in for the night.

Good location for one night, felt like a hostel
Location was great by the waterfront and walking distance to local shops, initially struggled to find the car park but after going back into the booking confirmation and following the link to directions we got there fine. Shown to the room and how to get in, separate code combinations for main entrance and access to the landing where our room was. A guy from the room next to us knocked on our door saying he moved in the day before and asked us to let him know if our shower was ok as his doesn’t stay hot (ours was fine), could hear him talking to himself in his room (walls maybe not well sound insulated) - from this got the impression it may also be used a kind of hostel accommodation. We went out and returned later, on entering the main hallway could smell weed, went to our room and was all quiet but we tip toed and didn’t put tv on incase next door knocked again. Slept fine, room clean enough, walls were just painted breeze blocks, plenty of tea/coffee available for in the morning. For one night away when visiting the area it was ok and for the price you can’t really complain. Speaking to local friends the building is also used for university students to stay and some rooms available for guests like us booking through hotels.com. I’m happy with basic accommodation, literally my only concern was that my first impression from inside was of a hostel. Otherwise ideal location and we got out safely so it was fine.

At midnight, the hotel's alarm bells were activated for a long time. And we all woke up, the hot shower was cold every three minutes, there was not even a single shampoo

Hi Thanks for the review but i feel i have to address thisThe fire alarm is for safety, your safety mainly, so if it goes off it means there is something wrong and we are highlighted and we address itWith regards to the shampoo !! seriously !! it is self contained apartments you rent, at the cost of 40 per night which is 20 per night per person in your case as there was 2 of you. Now for 2 grown men to share a room at that cost you got free tea, coffee, sugar, milk and biscuits, you get free Wi-Fi, free parking, a colour TV with freeview and built in DVD free heating and full use of a fully equipped kitchen, and you also want shampoo for free ?Now i appreciate you may get free sgampoo in other establishments but you would not get it for paying 20.00 per night per personThanks

It's a basic bedroom and toilet with a shower. No frills but if you want a cheap overnight stay for one or two nights and you're not fussy it's just the job. Really convenient for the town and station. I would stay again.

Response from Jacqui on 20 Sept 2022
HiThanks for your response, however the fact that your review is anonymous means i cannot check how long you stayed at the property or how many of you were in the room.The room is 38.00 per night which is 19.00 per person for 2 sharing, for that 19.00 you get free parking, free Wifi, free tea, coffee and biscuits aswell as clean towels and linen. Really cheap isnt it !!!!When it comes to clean linen if your stay was more than 7 nights i can assure you that you would have gotten clean linen on the 7th day and clean towels on the 3rd or 4th day FREE OF CHARGE !!!! now the reason its 7 days is !!! well a normal person would only change their bedding at home every 7 days or more so why would you expect accommopdation as cheap as 19.00 per person per night to change the bedding on a daily basis ????? Please tell me !!!! As economically this is not feasable with what i charge, and to be blunt i do not know anyone who has the time nor incination to change their own bedding at home on a daily basis !!!!With regards to toilet not flushing, you were showed how to flush toilet, after you flush like any cistern you have to wait until it fills up even in your own house !!! if you keep flushing flushing with no water its obvious nothing is going to happenI trust this clarifies the situation !!
