Overpriced and fals advertising

I booked 3 nights, primarily to have a time-out and relax. The room was ok, although very small and a bit lackluster. The main issue i encountered was that the tv did not work properly. It buffered constantly, to the point that it was unwatchable. I reported this to reception and they informed me that nothing could be done as there is no maintenance on weekends (thats just unacceptable), but when i returned to say the issue hadnt resolved they did offer to move me to a "better" room the next again day, which they did. However it was not a "better" room in any way, it was exactly the same, and the tv in that room also had the same issues with the TV. I reported this and was told there was nothing that could be done, and all i could do was email Motel One to complain. I did send am email of comaint, and over a week later I have still not had a reaponse. I also filled in an online form on their website, but no response. I would add that it is a very noisy area. For that reason alone i would not choose to stay in this hotel. Very disappointing, and definitely not worth the money. I paid £357 for 3 nights, and quite frankly it woulsnt have been worth it at half that price.

Small things missing

Wonderful location and kind staff, I would have appreciated a face cloth and shampoo and conditioner for the price I paid to stay. Other than those small inconveniences, I enjoyed staying and would stay again.

You are right by the main central station of Glasgow, so you have to expect an area that goes with such a position - lively and noisy - though didn't find that in the hotel itself (was on the 11th floor)! V good for restaurants and transport.
