Cityview Retreat – 2-Bed Apartment – Free Parking

Cityview Retreat – 2-Bed Apartment – Free Parking Overview

I’ll be honest – when I first pulled up to Cityview Retreat – 2-Bed Apartment – Free Parking on Adamswell Street, I wasn’t expecting much from the exterior. The building looks pretty standard for this part of Glasgow, but you know what? Sometimes the best places hide behind unassuming facades. This second-floor flat turned out to be one of those pleasant surprises that makes you glad you didn’t judge too quickly.

The free parking thing is actually a bigger deal than you might think – I mean, anyone who’s tried to find a decent parking spot in Glasgow knows it’s like winning the lottery. Having your own guaranteed space right there is honestly worth its weight in gold, especially if you’re planning to explore the city and surrounding areas. The apartment itself has this lived-in comfort that feels authentic rather than sterile. The two bedrooms are properly sized (not those cramped afterthoughts you sometimes get), and there’s enough natural light coming through to make the mornings feel welcoming. I particularly liked how they’ve set up the living space – it’s not trying to be fancy, but everything you need is there and it actually works.

What really struck me about staying here was how it sits in a genuinely residential neighborhood, away from the tourist hustle but still connected to everything that matters. You’re close enough to the city center that getting around is straightforward, but far enough out that you get a real sense of how locals actually live. The morning sounds are more birds and distant traffic than sirens and late-night revelers, which honestly made for much better sleep than I expected. I noticed the neighbors seemed friendly in that typical Glasgow way – polite nods and the occasional chat if you’re both heading out at the same time. For a 3-star place with a 7.3 rating, the Cityview Retreat delivers exactly what it promises without any pretense. It’s not going to blow your mind with luxury touches, but it’s clean, functional, and has that genuine homey feeling that makes you want to actually relax rather than just crash for the night. If you’re the type who prefers authentic local experiences over hotel amenities, this spot hits that sweet spot perfectly.

• Great location, lovely apartment, just what we wanted. – Tamiko from United Kingdom – July 27, 2025 (10/10)

  It was a 15 minute drive from the OVO Hydro which is where we were visiting. It was a quiet location so we slept really well. Lovely and clean with all the facilities we needed. We met the owner, who was lovely and exceptionally helpful, and gave us the best travel options regarding travel throughout the city. I had a few queries, and they were answered quickly. If we go to Glasgow again, we will definitely be checking to see if this property is available again.

• Poor experience – Al-ade from United Kingdom – March 24, 2025 (1/10)

  State of flat was terrible, bed was so noisy screws used to couple bed together was the wrong size as a result bed was all wobbly and squeaking constantly throughout the night on the slightest movement. The TV channels weren't working. bed linen wasn't clean. The bathroom floor was covered in wood laminates. I definitely wouldn't recommend this flat. Communication from host zero.
