A Decent Stay
convenient locationself-service buffetcramped roompoor pillow
The location provided easy access to various restaurants. The proximity to Kelvingrove Park and Museum was also convenient. The staff served tea and coffee promptly during breakfast. The self-service buffet offered various juice, yogurt, and cereal options.
The room felt cramped. I also noted the absence of drink glasses. The pillows proved to be of poor quality. I found that the hotel had seemingly increased prices due to a theater night, which seemed opportunistic.
