1 Niight Stay
My daughter and I were there for one night and enjoyed our stay. We loved that the checkout was at 11am and were able to keep our luggage for storage for 3 pounds per bag. The staff was nice and the bed was comfortable.

City stay
Central location. Big room but very hot and as in basement window didn’t open much. No shared kitchen which would have been useful as a large family.

Ovo arena visit
3 night stay to attend a concert at the Ovo arena. Great location for this, arena was within a 10-15 min walking distance. Great location also for the city centre and restaurants.
Hotel was clean, staff were very friendly and helpful with info about the area.
The room was basic, clean, bright and recently decorated. The bed was clean and reasonably comfy.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I booked Safe Stay, but I am glad I did. Staff was friendly and the location was great for us. There are lots of shops (not just the high priced ones) and dining options around. It was fun walking down pedestrian street area.
I would stay at Safe Stay in Glasgow again.

I enjoyed my stay here. I arrived a little early so we were able to wait in the sitting room that is provided.I did have some trouble sleeping as there was construction right behind the room. As a woman I felt incredibly safe here and would recommend here.

Probably won’t stay again, sorry!
More pillows would have been good, hand towel in bathroom would have been welcome, couldn’t get normal channels on tv, carpets ripped and worn, walls were dirty, bathroom very tired and water damaged. Wasn’t worth what we paid for one night, have stayed in much better for much cheaper in the same area with cooked breakfast. Bed was comfy and staff were very nice.

Nice hostel but noisy guests
Stayed before and the location off Sauciehall street in Glasgow is great
Only downside is guests using mobile phones in dorms who shout when you try to sleep

Could work for 1 night stay if you aren’t picky about cleanliness. Good luck if you get a room in the basement, super damp and moldy. Wouldn’t stay here again.
