I stayed in a private room with my mom. The rooms are fairly basic but have everything you need and are very clean. Awesome water pressure in the shower! Also, great location for exploring the city - we were able to walk to the University as well as to all the main shopping and sites. Also not too bad of... More

we took a double room with my friend and we've been very surprise about how good was the room, the bathroom and the breakfast ! The price was cheaper than for 2 beds in rooms of 6 people into some youth hostels in Glasgow ! More

The photos which are on this hostel site look much better than in reality. But this was not the main problem. You can hear everything through the walls of the rooms. We were quite unlucky because our neighbours were extremely talkative and noisy, even aggressive to each other, slamming the door at times, beginning with 2 am till 5am. When... More

it is in the city centre so you can easily go to anywhere you are interested. i agree with most of the previous reviewers here. the only thing i want to add is that we were there at the normal weekdays and working hours, it was quite difficult to find a parking space around. the road is very busy, hilly...

Warm private rooms at a great price, including a huge Scottish breakfast. Great location. Rooms were cleaned and included tea/coffee facilities. Was not expecting so much value! More

Aside from the longer walk than anticipated up and down Glasgow's hills from the station to the hotel (which we did fully laden), McLay's is very conveniently located near many of our destinations and even a train station (Charing Cross) which was useful to know when leaving for Helensburgh and later Edinburgh. As a converted dwelling it has a slightly... More

O.K. not recommended if you... More

I d like to say that I stayed for two nights in McLays Guest House and I was very happy with the room, staff and the environment they give to the guests. The house is very close to city centre just 10 minutes walk to University of Glasgow and 15 minutes to historical places. You do not need any bus... More
