“The location, tucked into Glasgow's West End, certainly appeals, as do the tartan-themed rooms aiming for a distinctive Scottish touch. I appreciate its historic building; there's something to be said for a family-run spot near the university. A full Scottish breakfast each morning is the kind of detail that makes a difference.”
