    No kettle is the only downfall but can’t fault the place at all.

    The property was at a great location from what we had planned. The venue was clean and exactly what we needed. Parking was easy and accessible. Highly recommend

    A couple of the towels were not clean. You need to install a grab bar or something to hold onto when getting into the shower. It is slippery and since the glass is on a hinge it seems like an accident waiting to happen.

    Location is great. It is easy to get in and out of and there are plenty of really good restaurants (Porters and Rye is amazing) nearby. Parking was easy as well.

    Liked apartment, only two very small things, couch was very low to sit on (only because sister has a bad back so it not great for her) and the socket the heater was plugged into was loose and coming off wall so wee bit cautious about using the switch.

    location was very good, a supermarket just across the road. It was within walking distance to the hydro, access to property was quick and the host was instantly contactable for any questions.

    There was a bit of a problem getting into the place, as i had been given an old code. As I had booked it for my husband and sister in law, it was a bit of a 3 way conversation, but we got there in the end.

    Great location, clean, comfortable, everything we needed. Great amenities near by! Would definatley stay again when visiting the hydro.

    The flat was in the up and coming neighborhood of Finnieston. Many good restaurants within walking distance it is possible to walk into the city center or take short but ride. The flat was well decorated and the beds were comfortable and I had good communication with the hosts Would recommend staying here.

    BEWARE DRIVERS! FREE PARKING IS A LIE!!! HOT WATER IS AVAILABLE ONLY OCCASIONALLY!!
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • One-Bedroom Apartment
    • Stayed 3 nights

    I chose this property because it said there was a free car park and I saw a picture of bath, not just shower. But free car park was a lie. The owner did not provide parking permit and the street parking costed £3.20 per hour and was limited to 3 hours from 8am to 6pm!!! So we had to keep putting coins and moving our car around during the days. Also, there was a bath but there was NO HOT WATER! The second day we waited the plumber to come and finish his work until early afternoon to make sure we have hot water. The boiler was fixed but then broken again next day!!! Because we don't have bath at home and taking a bath was one of our major purposes this ruined our family holiday!

    Location was OK. Owner was good at communication.

    • Stayed 1 night

    The flat needs a bit of TLC, it was such a lovely space but a bit dilapidated and could really do with a think about what guests might need, for example a bin in the bathroom is essential and it would have been nice to have a second bedside table in the bedroom - such small changes are needed to make it seem better value for money. The parking situation should be clarified, it was free after 6pm but only until 8am after which it was a maximum of 3 hours with no return at 80p per 15 minutes - which we hadn't realised when we booked. The keys were in a key safe attached to the railings outside - I appreciate that this isn't a problem that everyone will have, but at 5ft2, I struggled to reach this well enough to open (luckily my husband is taller!)

    The flat was well located and was a really lovely flat (it just needs a bit of care and attention) The bed was comfy and the flat was clean - basically what we expected from reading the reviews Great that it was dog friendly.

    nothing i love it all

    I adore the setting. Everything you need was provided before you arrived at the hotel because it is so well-kept. Finding the key and obtaining the code posed the only difficulty. Everything in the email was self-explanatory; it was only me who didn't take the time to read it carefully. My kids didn't want to go back home, but I must admit that I enjoy the house. I'll return the next year, thanks David
