Me and my girlfriend stayed here for the Slipknot concert and it was a really enjoyable stay :) very homely and the area its in is very nice and pretty quiet overall.
Staff were friendly and up for a chat, free coffee and filtered water at the front desk made the mornings very relaxed.
Rooms give you all you need but nothing more, can't really complain with that.
Overall we both found ourselves agreeing that we would stay again if the opportunity arised.

Beautiful area, safe. Property itself is stunning. Single room quite basic but that's what you expect.
Beautiful location overlooking Kelvingrove Park,very convenient for the university, museums and getting into the city centre. Well equipped kitchen and plenty of space in self-catering dining room. Lounge looking out over the park, and another with a table tennis table. Second floor room was a little chilly in spite of the radiator working hard, but the shower worked and everyone was clean and good. Good value for money.

I use this accommodation quite regularly and enjoy the peace and quiet, the warm welcome and clean, comfortable rooms and public spaces. Thank you all
Fue excelente! Está cerca a varios museos y un parque muy bonito. Es algo antigua pero cubre todas las necesidades, hay agua caliente, calefacción y áreas comunes muy completas.
Volvería sin dudarlo!
Staff were friendly and helpful, and the rooms were the nicest I’ve ever stayed in a hostel. Plenty of communal rooms with books/tv/etc and the self-serve kitchen was well stocked and clean.
Excellent place to stay, beautiful area with easy transport options, friendly helpful staff, well equipped kitchen - all at great prices! Couldn’t ask for more.
a beautiful, elegant building; and a good self-catering kitchen; and a nice touch of providing hot drinks in the reception area, so that it was very welcoming.
