Great Flat and terrific location!
Flat was perfect for our family of four. It was in a good location. It was near a lot of restaurants and an easy walk to most of the places we visited.

Excellent service
There was a problem in th building on the original apartment we booked and Eric seamlessly re-arranged our place to give us an even better apartment with a fabulouus view.
In addition he helped us with a lost cell phone the day of departure which involved his coming to give us a key... He saved my sister considerable travel stress!!
Perfect location and accommodations for family of 4 in Glasgow! We were there for a week and it could not have been better.
Eric w Glasgow Flats is excellent and responsive. A amazing experience from check in to check out!
Flat is within walking distance of Buchanan St. and has all the amenities you need from restaurants, pubs, shopping and a Tesco around the corner. If you want a treat go to DOH! a small doughnut shop not far.

Gorgeous apartment in the city
Property was clean, management was supportive and helpful, and overall it was a lovely place to stay during a visit to Glasgow. The kitchen amenities were particularly nice and we were able to enjoy cooking in or eating out (great location for restaurants). We would definitely stay there again.

Spacious and close to everything
Eric was extremely responsive as a host. The unit is as pictured and feels spacious. We were a group of 4 adults. The location was convenient to the main train station, grocery stores and fantastic restaurants. Good supply of toiletries and kitchen stuff. Very happy with this rental.

Great
Great property! They met us on-site with keys and friendly instructions. Beautiful view. It smelled a little of stale smoke when we arrived but cleared up after we ventilated it. Towels were thick and nice. Beds comfortable. And they had LOTS of flyers and a couple of sightseeing books that were super helpful. A very nice touch!

Location walkable to great restaurants, coffee shops bars and grocery. M&S has a fabulous grocery and Obsession of India a must for Indian food! The owners were very friendly, helpful and available when we needed. The open concept apt was very spacious. It got quite warm a few days during our august stay. We opened the windows and entire apt cooled it down quickly!

Excellent city centre apartment
This apartment provided everything we wanted - safe & secure parking along with very clean and well equipped accommodation which was well laid out for four adults and young infant. High chair and cot provided as requested. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to be within walking distance of city centre shops, pubs & restaurants in one direction and park / play area in the other.
The information folder provided was comprehensive and the booking process for this apartment was very efficiently carried out. The arrangements for arrival went completely to plan and we are very grateful to Devin for his ensuring that we had all the information required to enjoy our stay.
