excellent location short walk helpful staff
the location was excellent near many cafes and shops just off the great western road. kelvingrove art gallery and museum were a short walk away.. kelvinbridge circle station offered easy access to the heart of the city. i appreciated that the staff looked after my bag after i checked out, which allowed me to visit the hospital.
the carpet in the room seemed quite old, raising some concerns about its cleanliness.

accessible service quick check-in super clean room
The bus service to the city center was very accessible. Check-in was simple and quick. The room had lots of space and I found it spotlessly clean.
The room decor looked a little dated.
