The hostel is in an old converted 60s office block just north of the River Clyde, neighbouring what feels like a dodgy part of town. We forgoed the dorm rooms for a double room on the 6th floor. The décor was spartan and the bed horrifically uncomfortable – the springs in the mattress felt virtually exposed. The bathroom seemed unclean and the television cost GBP1 for 15 hours viewing or until switched off, together with a photo ID deposit for the remote control.
On the positive side it was cheap and central, continental breakfast was included, free wi-fi was available in the bar, and kitchen facilities were great (albeit locked after 2200.) On balance I am probably growing out of hostels, so would probably not stay here again.

Hi, don't have so much to say.
Went there with my girlfriend booked a double room they didn't keep the reservation as they only had a twin available.
The girl at the reception said they can decide to give us a double or a twin...as they wish. ABSURD!
Too tired to search for other places, we got into the room.
Dirty place, noisy at night because of traffic jam and drunk men screaming.

I booked a party of 19 people into this Hostel for the recent football match between Scotland and Northern Ireland. I honestly thought the atmosphere in the hostel was unbeatable partly due to the fantastic bar 'osmosis' attached to it. The rooms provided adequate facilities such as beds, toilets and washing facilities and were perfect for the rest periods in between partying. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and thanks to Vicky and James who were very hospitable in the bar. They even kindly escorted an eldery man in our party who was sleep walking during the night back to his room and then proceeded to give him a drink 'on the house' the next day. Its the small things which people really appreciate along with the personal touch and this place ticked all the right boxes.

All the BAD aspects of the above negative reviews are entirely true, and more.

The shower was completely ludicrous: water went all over the floor as soon as the shower was turned on, the shower head was pitifully outdated and generally malfunctioning The entire area behind the bathroom door was covered in short curly hairs (if you know what I mean), which were there for the entire time (who is cleaning this place?).

We stayed in 2 different rooms over 4 nights and both were as bad as the other. The mattresses had huge craters in them and the springs were unwelcomely lodged directly into our backs all night. The first night we were in a room with a double bed (we are a couple), but for the next 3 nights we were in bunk beds in a private room!! Who ever heard of a couple sleeping in bunks, hostel or not!

The card reader for the lifts in the foyer was seriously malfunctioning - the staff were obviously so used to seeing large crowds of people gathering outside the non-working lifts that they didn't once offer to help anyone work the card reader. I understand that the reception staff can't be running out from behind the desk every 2 minutes to help people with the lift, but if they just fixed/replaced the card reader, this wouldn't happen in the first place. (I notice at least one other review mentions this too...)

Breakfast was average - I advise you to avoid the juice on offer, unless you greatly enjoy the flavour of Vitamin C tablets, which is what all 3 flavours of juice tasted like.

The kitchen was grossly understocked - the owners need to pop down to Ikea and treat themselves to a few pots, pans utensils and cups. Hardly anything to cook with.

We couldn't wait to leave, and would never ever return - not even if it was free. That's another point - I thought the prices were a bit steep - then I arrived and saw the place! Much too expensive for what is on offer. They shouldn't be allowed to charge through the roof just because of their central location. Keep in mind I'm not comparing this to a hotel, only other hostels and general human decency and minimal conditions of existence. Disgusting.
