Property Description
We are the only REAL hostel in Glasgow! Communal living at its finest! Our hostel has the best locations in the city. Blue Sky Hostel is just meters from the Glasgow School of art, Kelvin grove museum/park and drunken debauchery of Sauchihall street! Just 15 minute walk from the train/bus stations or 1 stop on the underground train. We have just installed a 10 person hot tub/ jacussi. A great way to warm up on a cold evening. If you are a backpacker who wants to meet fellow backpackers and make new friends, you are very welcome here. We are always looking for fun loving people to join our team. If you are interested contact the hostel. Please make sure you know the difference between a HOSTEL and a HOTEL before you make your booking. We are not a B&B looking to cash in on the hostel market. We are not a 100 room Hotel with bunk beds pretending to be a hostel. Everything is shared here and facilities are used by everyone. Hosteling is about spending less and doing more. There are at least 50 pubs, clubs and restaurants within a 5 minute walk from the hostel and great for backpackers, Scottish tourists and fun seekers looking for budget priced BACPACKERS hostel accommodation in Scotland. A comment for the people who book a 14 bed dorm for £10 and then leave a 30% rating. You thought it was messy, no atmosphere, facilities or safety???? Are you freaking serious??? Hey big spender! You booked the cheapest bed in the city. What did you expect in a room with 14 beds? No atmosphere? Why can?t you log off Facebook for 10 minutes and strike up a conversation in a room with 13 other people? I dont think you can blame us for that one mate... Safety? Locks on every door, security cameras, 24 hour staff and a 50kg dog are not enough for you? Maybe we need to provide big fluffy security blankets? Facilities? We provide Free computers,free WiFi,vending machine,microwave,kitchen, coin laundry machine,free lockers, free towels and bed sheets.

Scarsissimi livelli di igiene in camera e nei bagni. Non abbiamo avuto il coraggio di andare in cucina. C'era un buco sul soffitto della camera, la finestra era rotta e anche la scaletta per il letto à castello. A un certo punto della notte ha iniziato a piovere in camera, ma a quel punto non potevamo più stupirci. Siamo partiti la mattina molto presto quindi non abbiamo potuto segnalare la cosa a nessuno dello staff, ma la cosa peggiore forse è il fatto che il proprietario risponda in modo terribile a tutte le critiche nelle recensioni, dicendo anche falsità. Vale davvero la pena spendere qualcosina in più per non ritrovarsi in questo postaccio.

If you are backpacker on a budget, this is a friendly and affordable hostel, in a quiet area, not far from the main centre of Glasgow. I stayed in a mixed dormitory during my visit. The bedding provided was very clean. There isn't a luggage storage facility (that I'm aware of) for suitcases. However, there are sizeable lockers in the rooms that will fit a backpack. If you plan on using them bring a large padlock, the small ones are not suitable for providing any security. Improvements: Establishing a female-only dormitory. Cleaner bathroom and shower facilities. It would be nice if there were some mirrors in the room. :-)

Lorsque nous avons fait notre réservation, nous n'avions pas lu les avis concernant cette auberge. Quelle erreur ! Tout d'abord, les photos ne sont absolument pas conformes à la vérité. Lorsque nous sommes arrivées à la réception, nous avons immédiatement su que nous n'allions pas rester aussi longtemps que prévu. L'endroit était dans un désordre pas possible, et il n'y avait personne pour nous accueillir. Une fois que nous avons pu avoir accès à notre chambre, nous avons dû slalomer entre des machines à laver et des planches à repasser pour y accéder. La chambre était décevante, il y avait une odeur de moisissure qui y régnait. Lorsque nous avons voulu ouvrir la fenêtre, des insectes nous sont tombés dessus. Autant vous dire que la propreté n'était pas au rendez-vous. Après avoir passé l'après-midi dans la ville nous sommes retournées à l'auberge afin de prendre une douche. Encore là un échec cuisant. Apparemment, les lieux sanitaires seraient nettoyés tous les jours dans la matinée. Permettez moi encore là d'affirmer le contraire. Il est évident en voyant l'état des lieux que personne n'est venu nettoyer depuis longtemps. Un autre problème de ces installations, c'est que toilettes et douches sont dans la même pièce, rendant l'une indisponible lorsque l'autre est occupée. Concernant la douche, la barre supposée tenir le tuyau de douche n'était plus fixée au mur, et si par malheur vous la toucher, elle vous tombera dessus, et si vous êtes malchanceux.se le clou rouillé qui soutient la structure pourrait vous blesser. Autant vous dire qu'il ne s'agit pas d'un environnement très rassurant. Pour finir, le propriétaire définit son auberge comme une "backpacker hostel" signifiant qu'il s'agit d'un endroit social où l'on s'attend à faire des rencontres. Si mettre de la musique et hurler jusqu'à trois heures du matin sans considération pour les voyageur.euse.s fatigué.e.s , sachant que les murs sont aussi fins que du papier, correspond pour vous à cette définition, alors cet endroit est fait pour vous.

Pour déposer nos valises avant de visiter Glasgow, nous avons voulu déposer nos valises à l'auberge. Pour entrer dans l'établissement, les deux portes sont sales, cassées et ne donnent pas confiance. Enfin devant la réception, une personne est allongée dans un des fauteuils (nous n'avons pas pris de photo de lui pour son droit à l'image) et RONFLE très bruyamment. L'endroit est très sale, en mauvais état, presque laissé à l'abandon et dans un état INSALUBRE. Ayant attendu plusieurs minutes, personne n'était présent à la réception (alors qu'il est indiqué qu'elle est ouverte 24h/24) et malgré l'utilisation de la sonnette, personne ne s'est présenté. Nous nous sommes senties très très mal dans cet établissement. Nous avons donc décidé de partir loin, très loin de ce taudis pour trouver un autre logement. Si les chambres et les sanitaires sont dans le même état que la réception, il n'était pas question de dormir dans cet endroit. Nous avons préféré repayer un autre établissement. A FUIR ABSOLUMENT. Dommage qu'il ne soit pas possible de ne mettre aucune étoile car cette auberge ne mérite pas mieux!

Do not book if you are a woman. As two young women we felt unsafe and uncomfortable. The entire place is really shabby and dirty. Nothing was explained at the beginning, someone just took our name and give us our keys (which open all the rooms and the doors of the hostel). There is only two dirty toilets for at least 40 people and we guess only one shower (but we did not find it). There is no kitchen at all. Not even a fridge, a boiler or a microwave. Nothing to cook. Only beers ? We guess the place is okay for a one night stay if you are a man and don’t mind but we wouldn’t recommend at all for women. PS: we left before spending the night and there is no refund

It was okay at best. I will say that the location is ideal. It’s a very close walk to get into the city. My friend and I stayed for 3 nights and booked a private room. When we arrived, the room had already been given to someone else and we had to wait for them to kick them out, “clean” the room, and replace the sheets. The private room was basic enough, which was fair. It was nice that it came with a sink. The beds were fine and the sheets were nice/clean, however the room had paper thin walls and were woken up by someone loudly blowing their nose next door. The bathroom was dirty and had blue roll, not toilet paper…. I think the place is fair enough given you get what you pay for, but I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re just there to sleep.

Stayed for business reason so booked a private room which was decent. The staff were friendly and laid back. It is close to city centre and shops. The room was clean and shared bathroom and kitchen were also clean and tidy. There is place to charge and use electronic devices and has free WIFI for guests.

The bunk beds were DUCKTAPED together and the bedding stunk as if it had not been washed, luckily I had brought a sleeping bag. The shared toilets were disgusting and were clogged and stunk. Had to go to our friends hotel for toilet and shower as cleanliness did NOT exist there. On top of this the receptionist was VERY creepy. My friend and I (both females) slept together the first night as we didn’t feel very safe/comfortable and the next night the receptionist made it clear that he somehow found out we shared a bed that night. As two young girls we were very scared. would NOT recommend.

I have stayed in many budget hostels ( some better some worse ) but I never before felt like I couldn't stay the night. The linen clearly hadn't been washed (it had stains and hair all over ) there was dust all around the reception area and the floors were dirty. I usually don't see the point of bad reviews but in this case : DON'T BOOK THIS HOSTEL!
