A night stop in Glasgow
A one night stop in Glasgow on the cheap - here you get what you pay for, a clean room, a bed and very basic breakfast. Not to be critical as it had free parking which sold me and walkable to the city core. Perhaps not in best area but again the price - I would recommend for the budget travelers.

Short Glasgow Break
It is what it says it is, a budget hotel. It is however as budget as I've ever stayed in! It did the job for a night but I wouldn't want to stay any longer than that. Quite a few back packers use this hotel and I can see why. lots of amenities

Nice price, good location
Very basic but fine for a one night stay as we were there for a gig at the OVO Hydro.Only suggestion would be to have a couple of glasses/plastic tumbler to drink from.Lots amenities in close proximity.Would stay again.
