2 Bed Flat – Street Parking

2 Bed Flat – Street Parking Overview

Honestly, when I first pulled up to 2 Bed Flat – Street Parking on Lorne Street, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect – the name is refreshingly straightforward, which should’ve been my first clue that this place doesn’t mess around with fancy marketing speak. This little gem sits in the Govan area, and while it might not have the official star rating of those big chain hotels, it’s got something way more valuable: character and authenticity that you just can’t manufacture.

The flat itself is tucked into one of those classic Glasgow tenement buildings that actually tell the story of the city. You know what struck me most? The space feels genuinely lived-in rather than sterile – I mean that in the best possible way. The two bedrooms are properly sized (none of that “cozy” nonsense that usually means you can’t open your suitcase), and there’s this wonderful natural light that streams in during the morning hours. The kitchen‘s got everything you’d actually need if you want to grab some groceries from the nearby shops and cook a proper meal, which honestly saved me a fortune during my stay. And about that street parking mentioned in the name – yes, it’s real, and yes, it’s free, which anyone familiar with Glasgow will tell you is basically like finding treasure.

What really sets this place apart is the neighborhood vibe. Lorne Street isn’t some touristy bubble – it’s proper Glasgow, with local pubs where you’ll hear genuine Glaswegian banter and small shops that have been serving the community for decades. The riverside walks along the Clyde are just a few minutes away, and you can actually see the city center across the water, but you’re far enough removed to escape the hustle when you want some peace. I’ll be honest, the 7.8 rating seems about right – it’s not luxury, but it’s solid, clean, and comfortable with that boutique feel that comes from someone actually caring about the details rather than following a corporate playbook. The only minor thing I’d mention is that being a traditional Glasgow building, you might hear your neighbors occasionally (it’s just the way these old places are built), but it never bothered me much. If you’re looking for an authentic Glasgow experience without paying city center prices, and you want a place that feels more like borrowing a friend’s flat than staying in a hotel, this spot delivers exactly what it promises.

• Nous sommes arrivés bien après l’heure prévue d’arriver. Il faisait froid et il pleuvait, nous étions fatigués et pressé – Badr from Morocco – August 26, 2025 (5/10)

  Maison grande 3 chambres
  Un mot touchant de bien venue mais qui résonne mal quand on vous fait attendre derrière les portes et qu’on ne reprend pas au téléphone malgré une arrivée après l’heure prévue. Ce n’est pas professionnel.
  
  What could be improved: Vielle maison, héritage de grands parents, escalier du 14 eme siècle, toilettes très étroite qui peut être facilement modifiée et donner plus d’espace, on comprend que le propriétaire ne veut pas investir. La climatisation ne marche pas et il fait froid. La maison n’est pas du tout ensoleillé et avec le climat humide et les fenêtres qui ne s’ouvrent que partiellement donc on sent le moisi.

• Poor – Ratsamy from France – June 7, 2025 (3/10)

  Le prix et la situation
  
  What could be improved: Nous avions réservé 5 apparts pour notre séjour en écosse et c'est le seul à nous avoir demandé une caution de 250 pounds…bref
  J'ai galèré pour récupérer le code du coffre pour les clés et j'ai passé 30 min car l'agence ne répondait pas. J'ai finalement appelé Booking
  Les draps n'étaient pas très frais à croire qu'ils ne le changent pas souvent
  Les nuits sont fraîches et le chauffage ne fonctionnait pas
  L'avant dernier jour nous n'avions plus d'eau chaude dans la douche
  L'appart est au premier étage et l'escalier est pentu

• Ár érték arányban kiváló volt, a fürdő elég szűkös, de minden más rendben. – Anonymous from Hungary – July 15, 2025 (8/10)

  What could be improved: Tágas, jól felszerelt konyha.
