We rented an apartment for a special family event and the booking process was great. The person we dealt with on the phone was very helpful and communicated all the information we required clearly.
The building itself if very deceptive and we actually drove straight passed it the first time because it’s not much to look at from the outside. It’s an old 1960’s / 70’s office block and previously the home of a cigarette manufacturer. It’s situated just of Sauchiehall Street, one of the main shopping thoroughfares in Glasgow.
Inside, the building has been renovated to a high standard and we were taken to our room by the receptionist who explained how everything worked.
The apartment we had didn’t give us the view you see in the website pictures, we were just above a flat, felt covered roof and looked on to a backstreet which was close to a nightclub and frequented by late night revellers and boy racers. I was surprised that the floor to ceiling windows offered virtually no ability to block out sound – we were able to hear the conversations of the people on the street below! Needless to say, if you’re expecting a good night’s sleep, this is not the place for you.
We also encountered a problem with the water in the apartment where the hot water system appeared to lose all pressure after running the tap for more than a minute. This was a big problem when everyone was trying to get a shower in the morning! The guard at reception knew what the problem was and was able to fix it very quickly but, over the weekend, the same thing happened several times.
We paid extra for the underground parking and if you’re taking a car, I’d recommend you do this too.
These are nice apartments, situated in the centre of the city. However, based on my experience, they are starting to show wear and tear now and noise levels generated from the street will put off young families.
