10/10 Exceptional

excellent staff

Went in early to drop our bags off and got offered an early check in for £10. Nice and clean but not a great view from the executive rooms. Apparently the club rooms have a. better view. Made use of the lounge for a wee snack and some soft drinks before heading out into Glasgow. We'd booked drinks in the lounge from 1700-1930 so headed back for then. There was an assortment of drinks and snacks available and you just help yourself to whatever you want. Breakfast was excellent, and check out was simple with them offerimng to keep our bags until we were heading to the station to go home again. We will no doubt be back.
