Stunning 2 bed property in heart of West End Overview

Look, I’ll be straight with you about this one – the Stunning 2 bed property in heart of West End isn’t going to win any design awards, but honestly, it gets the job done if you’re planning to spend most of your time exploring rather than lounging around your room. The 2-star rating pretty much tells you what you’re getting into, and with a 5.6 rating, well… let’s just say it’s got character.

The location though – that’s where this place actually shines. You’re properly in the thick of Glasgow‘s West End, which means you can stumble to Byres Road for a proper breakfast, wander through the Botanic Gardens when you need some green space, or catch a show at one of the smaller venues without worrying about late-night transport. I mean, the West End has this buzzy student energy that I actually love, especially around the University of Glasgow area. You’ll hear a fair bit of street noise – it comes with the territory when you’re this central – but if you’re the type who needs absolute silence, maybe look elsewhere. The two bedrooms are decent enough for the price point, though don’t expect luxury linens or anything fancy. What you will get is space to spread out, which honestly beats cramming into a tiny hotel room when you’re traveling with friends or family.

Here’s what I wish someone had told me before staying in places like this around Glasgow – parking can be a nightmare in this part of town, so if you’re driving, factor in some walking or look into the residents’ parking situation beforehand. The check-in process was pretty straightforward when I dealt with similar properties in the area, though you know how it is with these independent places – sometimes you’re waiting around a bit longer than you would at a chain hotel. But there’s something refreshing about staying somewhere that doesn’t feel completely corporate, you know? The West End has this lived-in feel that the city center sometimes lacks, and you’ll find yourself popping into little cafes and pubs that locals actually frequent rather than just tourist traps. If you’re into vintage shopping or record stores, you’re basically in heaven here – Ruthven Lane and the surrounding streets are packed with interesting finds.

The property itself sits in an area where you can easily walk to Hillhead subway station, which connects you to the rest of Glasgow pretty efficiently. And honestly, for what you’re paying at a 2-star level, having two proper bedrooms in this location is actually quite decent value. Just set your expectations accordingly – think clean and functional rather than Instagram-worthy, and you’ll probably leave satisfied enough.

Reviews of Stunning 2 bed property in heart of West End

  • Great location, lots of potential but some simple improvements would make a big difference – Karin from United Kingdom – April 16, 2023 (6/10)

    What could be improved: Cleanliness and some basic items – no dishwasher, washing up bowl, plug so difficult for guests to wash up and keep things clean.

  • Light and clean West End flat – Jane from United Kingdom – November 5, 2024 (8/10)

    Great location. Clean and spacious flat

    What could be improved: Kitchen lighting and equipment could have been better for us as we like to cook. Lockbox for keys was hard to close

  • Very Poor – Wing from Hong Kong – August 14, 2023 (2/10)

    What could be improved: the keys are difficult, confusing and complicated to use. The door cannot be locked without the key. 2nd set of key was not provided even though it was promised.

  • Good – Ágota from Hungary – June 4, 2023 (7/10)

    tiszta kényelmes ágy

    What could be improved: nehezen tudtunk bejutni a lakásba, nem kaptam információt sem ezzel, sem a lakáshasználattal kapcsolatosan. Pl. a zuhany használata sem volt egyszerû.

  • Very Poor – Shanti from Switzerland – June 14, 2024 (2/10)

    Küche war sauber,

    What could be improved: Wohnzimmer Sofa und Kissen sind voller Staub. Konnte dort nicht sitzen wegen meiner Allergie. Badezimmer Dusche funktionierte nicht. Konnte nicht duschen, weil es keine andere Möglichkeit gab, das Wasser zu sammeln.

  • Wonderful – Anscombe from United Kingdom – August 1, 2023 (9/10)
