A rundown hotel accused of being run like an “open prison” is raking in up to a million pounds a year of taxpayers’ cash to house the homeless.
The Queen’s Park Hotel in Glasgow charges the city council £1400 a month for one single room with shared toilet facilities.
The hotel pockets an astonishing £2800 a month in housing benefit per homeless couple for a shabby double room – with one room we saw containing a chair, a bed, broken chest of drawers, a TV hanging off the wall and an ensuite shower room.
