10/10 Excellent
"I had booked the executive suite for a 60th birthday trip and liked that it was slightly out of Glasgow. I had some issues with this because I had been told it could be made into a twin room when I called but the day before was told it could not. However, Sam on the front desk was lovely and managed to change to a twin room. We were also reminded of our wine as part of the booking. The room was large with a lovely big bathroom. Lots of parking outside. We had a drink in the bar which was lovely and tried to book an uber. Useful to know it’s almost importable to get one and again, Sam came to the rescue and ordered a taxi for us. Had a lovely nights sleep- comfy beds and quiet hotel. I think general wear and tear is quite noticeable throughout the hotel. We didn’t have the breakfast but it was busy in the morning. We also didn’t use the spa or pool but again it looked good. We would stay again if up in Glasgow."

"The hotel decor is tired and there was a lack of info in our room ie how to use tv stations. The pool area lacked signs to know where to get towels, what was the procedure for using the pool, sauna etc., we had to ask. Staff were very helpful and pleasant It would have been useful to have local info provided in our room. Having said all this, we would go back.
