Amazing time here. The Flat was fantastic for all of us. Very spacious and clean. Merchant city area is a very nice neighbourhood with lots of restaurants, and grocery needs. Amazing people to have as hosts. We’re happy to have stayed here, and hope to visit again soon. Cheers

Mold on bathtub grout. Dirty shower curtain Noisy flooring wakes people up when someone goes to the bathroom. Lack of privacy and noisy because of loft bedrooms. Wrong address on listing. Good location.

Great apartment in downtown Glasgow

I spent four nights in this great apartment that is conveniently located in central Glasgow. The apartment was clean, roomy and the building was quiet. There is a lot of natural light and the sun warmed the apartment nicely. The owner met us on time and gave us a great overview of the apartment and its amenities. We were an easy walking distance to George Square, Merchant City and even the meeting point for a Rabbies Tour that we had booked. There are many good restaurants a five minute walking distance and the train station is less than a 10 minute walk. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Glasgow for the first time.

Great Location and Space

This was a very nice 2 bedroom rental near the Merchant City area. Right in the middle of many restaurants and pubs that you could walk to. It was only a 5 minute walk to the Queen Street train station which was great for catching trains to Edinburgh and Sterling among other cities. Overall a very good stay.
