A great city centre location and very comfortable apartment. It has been furnished and equipped to a high standard with everything you might need. Very convenient for local transport, we went to Edinburgh by bus and got to and from the airport the same way, much cheaper than a taxi.
A great location for exploring Glasgow and a comfortable refuge from the inevitable rain!!
Owner's Response: Rain? - you must have been unlucky! Well ok it does rain now and again in Scotland but you can be assured that you will indeed be very comfortable in the apartment - B&O flatscreen TV; DVD library; internet; books library as well as a few games- if your plans are indeed scuppered by the weather and you want to stay indoors. In fact everything is so close the weather need not come into it anyway. All the main shops are right on your doorstep including St Enoch Centre which is all under cover. Transport also nearby. So you need not worry about the weather when visiting Glasgow if you stay at the Library apartment!
(ps -Scotland has been known to have loads of sun too!)

Our Glasgow home away from home!

Review Submitted: September 2, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We loved staying at the Library! The location is the best. The decor is upscale, contemporary and hip! Everything we needed was there for us. Very modern appliances and fixtures. The shopping is steps away! Get your groceries at Marks & Spencer. Easy jogging routes along the Clyde and through Glasgow Green. A great place to be immersed in Glasgow - the real city. Excellent communication with the owner - made us feel welcome! The place was impeccibly clean and well-maintained. We loved being able to experience the city so easily. John and Carol

Excellent

Review Submitted: August 19, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Spacious and well-decorated, this flat has a fantastic location in the heart of the city. No car needed as you have bus-stops, subway and train stations practically on your doorstep. However if you head to the Merchant City, you may not need any transport! Excellent customer service from the owner. Id have no hesitation in staying here again

Comfortable and convenient

Review Submitted: August 12, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Very convenient, if smallish , flat in the centre of Glasgow. Owner could not have been more helpful or responsive. Had everything that we needed.
Owner's Response: The apartment is a spacious 1 bed room apartment with a double sofa bed in the lounge. Normal occupancy would be 2-3 persons with a max of a family of 4 persons. On this occassion we catered for a family of 5 so no doubt they did find it a little on the smallish side. The apartment is ideally situated and well equipped for up to 4 persons.

Right in the heart of Glasgow

Ernestnino Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Review Submitted: July 16, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
would recommend staying here - it was a lovely apt with lots of amenities. Relatively large for three people (especially if you are used to hotel rooms). A full kitchen and a very friendly owner. It was right in the heart of Glasgow - easy walking distance to almost everywhere we wanted to go (and there was a subway stop nearby, lots of buses, and a train station for when we wanted to go a bit further afield). It was very quiet when the windows were closed and not too noisy (normal city life) with the windows open. The only problem I have is that I am used to sleeping on a queen sized bed and the apt has a double so it was a bit tight for me and my husband - but the bed was definitely comfortable. I would stay here again.
Owner's Response: Glad the accommodation worked out for you! We try to keep it a a home from home and an ideal alternative to city centre hotels. In fact its probably better situated than the hotels too!
Glad you also found it relatively peaceful despite its city centre location.

Fantastic stay, brilliant apartment

MWGW cheshire
Review Submitted: May 26, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
The apartment was lovely, spacious and well appointed with all mod cons and comforts. The kitchen was well equipped, convenient and clean. Guidebooks, dvds and cds were a nice touch and appreciated. Location was great, just fell out the front door and had a stroll around the city centre, shopped, etc with ease. Heaps of local restaurants. Will definately stay again!
Owner's Response: Yes the location is terrific. Right in the centre of the city but not much in the way of traffic noise as the street is a no through road where the pedestrian area starts. Glasgow has some terrific shopping too! Glad the extras were appreciated. We try to make it as much a home from home as possible!

Our stay in Glasgow

Jon & Jen Canada
Review Submitted: May 7, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
My husband and I rented this great apartment for 1 week, we loved our stay! It is comfortable, safe, has great space, and everything you might need. The location is wonderful, we walked everywhere including groceries and shopping close by. It did get a bit noisy at times, but there was construction going on and the weekend parties are heard, but it didn't seem to bother us too much. I would definitely recommend this place over a hotel room for a week.
Owner's Response: Yes we think the location is unrivalled. It really is close to everything and truly a city centre location. Noise isnt usually a problem but I guess in a city centre you cant expect it to be completely quiet all of the time! Just as well the large sash windows are double glazed too!

Excellent flat in Glasgow

Exiled Scot Fleetwood, Lancashire.
Review Submitted: May 3, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Lovely flat in the very centre of Glasgow. Only a few minutes walk to George Square. No need for a car. Flat is very modern and clean with everything you could require. Pleanty of restaurants and bars nearby. The restaurant we liked best is on the same street as the flat - an Italian called SoHo. The city sightseeing buses are an excellent way of seeing what the city has to offer and the Glaswegians are very friendly. Twice we asked for directions and both times the person insisted on walking with us to make sure we knew where we were going! Highly recommended.
Owner's Response: Good to hear you enjoyed your stay and the location and apartment met your expectations! The location really is unrivalled for a city centre apartment at a reasonable cost. Hopefully we can welcome you back soon. Regards.

Close to everything!

Review Submitted: March 5, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2008
We stayed in Ronnies flat while we were in Glasgow. The space is really nicely decorated, and the location is superb. Right in the heart of the city. So you can expect city noises. But nothing overly annoying.
The building has lots of old charm, and we found it to be secure and fairly quiet.
definately would consider this place at the top of our list for Glasgow accomodation.
Owner's Response: The location is right in the heart of the city centre and as the title says - Very Close to everything!
So you can be assured of a comfortable stay and be conveniently located to all that Glasgow has to offer. You can enjoy all this without expecting too much city noise too. All in all the perfect location and the perfect apartment in our opinion!
