We were able to visit a few neighborhood restaurant suggested by our hosts and had some of the best food of our entire trip! Would recommend!

    This was a great flat for us during our stay. The newly renovated bathroom was quite nice. The dining room chairs need a little love (as the legs seemed a little loose); but that was minor. The host was very helpful with some recommendations of local eateries, etc. therefore I would stay here again!

    My trip was part business / part holiday. This location was perfect for me. It's in a quiet neighborhood and lot's of coffee shops, restaurants, and grocery stores near by. Princes Street was a easy 10 minute walk. The other aspect for me was being away from the tourists, definitely more of locals area. Would definitely stay again!

    We had a great 4 night visit to Glasgow. The property is easily accessible by Uber and is slightly uphill if coming from the Queen or Central Stations. My wife and I chose to walk. The check-in instructions were simple and easy to follow and the property is on the first floor. Bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living area are all good size and the Wi-Fi was very fast and reliable. The views of the city from the living area are excellent and the property is pretty central to everything. Communication with the host was also excellent. Highly recommend this property.

    Good base in the West End

    The property is very bright with high ceilings. The kitchen and bathroom are basically brand new, though we did have a problem with temperature regulation in the oven. The kitchen was also well equipped. The shower was a really nice size! As the fridge is small, there's only a freezer tray and as the flat is on the smaller side, I would recommend this as a good base for couples. There is free parking 5-10 min walk away and it was quite busy, but there is metered parking available outside the flat. There are good food shops nearby and the meadows were around a 30 min walk away. Radek and Marine were very accommodating and attentive hosts and were very quick with their responses.

    Traumhaft schöner Urlaub mit perfekter Unterkunft

    Die Fotos & Beschreibung des Apartments liessen uns nicht lange zögern. Die leichte Erreichbarkeit vom Haymarket, wo wir aus dem 100-ter Bus, vom Flughafen ausstiegen, war einfach. Die Gegend ist gut und sicher. Es war sehr gemĂŒtlich. Im Schlafzimmer gibt es eine feine Buchauswahl, falls man vor GlĂŒck nicht einschlafen kann. Bus und S-Bahn sind direkt ums Eck um Tagestouren zu starten und selbst zu Fuss macht es Spass zu laufen. Die kulinarischen Empfehlungen unseres Host waren fabelhaft, der Kontakt sympathisch.

    Great space!

    The apartment was exactly like the pictures and reviews....clean and spacious! Check-in was simple and communication with the owners was fantastic. For example, we requested extra bedding for the sofa bed at the last minute, and they provided it quickly. Just a heads up: the apartment is on the top floor without an elevator. I don't consider this a negative in any way, but I just want others to be aware that it could be difficult for less capable people. The only unexpected part was the distance to the center of town. The other reviews were correct that it's about a ten-minute drive, AND once we left, we were out and about for the day. However, we had to wait a while for Ubers to arrive and they would cancel the pick up often. Taxis didn't come by often and cost much more than Ubers.

    Renting this property couldn’t have been easier. It was in a very convenient location for visiting our newborn grandchild and we only used it to sleep in at night. The bathroom was fabulous and has the best shower of any rental property we stayed in. My husband has had a knee replacement and found going up several flights of stairs challenging so we don’t plan to return.
