University of Glasgow - Gilmorehill Campus

Tbh, it is very worth for trying. Initially, I thought it was a scam because the price was very cheap with a premium ensuite, but it was real btw. The room looks a bit old, but it's okay. If something was broken, u just need to report, and they'll come and check kinda fast (only 1 day). However, could tell that the war is like paper, but its fine. In reception, they have everything such as sim card, even con...People are very nice, so I would recommend based on my good experience tbf.
