Property very dated. Location was good as it was within minutes of underground subway to city centre. Small room and tiny bathroom. Not bad for value when considering prices of bigger hotels in area.

Convenient location. It felt like a hostel - lots of comings & goings & front door was not on slow closure so banged. Noise from street; single glazed windows. Decor: thin curtains-hems all coming down; chipped paintwork. Bathroom: door didn’t close properly; frayed carpet; cracked sink & tiles; grouting dirty; mirror worn; rusty, dented bin. Shower was powerful. Lobby area was just corridor with sliding glass window. No extra lock on bedroom door just key lock without sliding mechanism.

A very cozy and clean guest house in a walking distance from Kelvinbridge subway and from many attractions. Wonderful and kindhearted staff members who are always willing to help.

Mice and mould - i guess you get what you pay for
The shower was good, however, thats where the good things stopped. Woke up on the first morning to a mouse in our room so asked for a new room for our 2nd night, they were very nice and accomodating and gave us a new room but i still had the fear of mice :( also in both rooms the bathroom ceilings had mould :/

Spacious and clean rooms, friendly staff, and walking distance to the university and other things. If you’re visiting in the winter, it may get cold at night. The heaters turned off overnight both nights we stayed there and turned back on at 7 a.m. exactly. I was assured they do not turn off overnight, so maybe it was the specific room we stayed in, but they most definitely did turn off and we were all very cold.

Great for a night before onward journey
I just needed somewhere cheap and private to stay overnight and all the usual city centre places were full or more expensive than I was willing to pay, so tried Glasgow house. I booked a single room and was upgraded to a room with a double and single bed (used the single bed anyway) and that made up a little bit for the fact that there was an extra £10 for a late check in, which I felt that should have been clearly stated in description on the hotels.com website as I'd have probably booked elsewhere closer to the city centre, but apart of that I cannot fault the hotel. For the price it is good enough and most importantly clean and I couldn't care less that the plaster might have been coming off in few places, that the decor isn't modern or that the matress was too soft with a dip etc. I think the Glasgow house is perfect for a cheap night stop off and if you require beautiful new decor/firm matress, go elsewhere and pay for the privilege.

Room was freezing cold, had to use the duvet from the other bed on top of the duvet already on the bed, tried to put the radiator on and it didn’t come on until early hours of the morning, there were exposed carpet grippers around the edge of the room, which is dangerous. And the key for the room is the same key for the front door so every room has the same key?! Doesn’t make you feel safe at all! The bathroom had a very strange and ominous looking rope hanging from the ceiling, like something from a horror film.

For the price, it was okay as long as your room is not next to the creaky staircase. I woke up several times thinking a mice was in the roof. But it was just people going up and down the stairs. Room was cleaned everyday.

I wanted to be in the Westend of Glasgow particularly, so I chose this, despite the other reviews. I should not have. Read the reviews, please don't stay.

Our stay was excellent with good room sevices which we didn't expect for the price paid. We enjoyed our stay and no regrets. But the carpet needs changing.

Everything was technically spot on for the description. I would have really loved to know if my private bathroom was an ensuite, or one I had to exit my room to use, but other than that, it was a pleasant and convenient place to stay.

OK but....
Accommodation is basic but OK for a night, room spacious and clean but quite cold. I felt vulnerable as I was at the end of a downstairs corridor and the door lock was a Yale lock which couldn't be secured from the inside. Not great for a solo female traveller - probably wouldn't stay there again. Not GH's fault but parking also really difficult.

Nice place and friendly staff, only problem was there was no where to park anywhere near the hotel. Also, mouse traps in the rooms under the bed makes it a bit uncomfortable.

Glasgow house dissatisfied
Room had a stale smell and around 40% of the carpet was wet. Window could not be opened to let fresh air in. Overall disappointed with the room. Shared toilet and shower was clean and shower had plenty pressure with hot water. Bed was ok but pillow very thin and no body.

I would not book
The room advertised is not real. My closet in my house is bigger than the room I received. I booked for 4 nights but only stay one and willing to forgo the other 3 nights as I dont' feel safe. I was put on the third floor with one exit down the stairs. The floor creaky and the shower did not work. I had to checked into another hotel.
