    scrumptious waffles
    clean spacious room
    stress-free parking
    noisy guests
    disrupted sleep

    Oh, the waffles from that wee cafe nearby were an absolute game changer! Plus, the clean, spacious room set me up perfectly for my culinary adventures. Oh, and parking was stress-free—sorted right next to the entrance!

    Unfortunately, there were extremely noisy females returning in the early hours, disrupting my sleep. Still, I reckon I’d go back for the food scene alone!

    recently refurbished room
    inconsistent heating

    Great location, lovely sea views

    The room we stayed in was well laid out, clean, and recently refurbished, providing everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming, ensuring our experience was smooth.

    The only downside was the issue with the heating. it would turn off during the night, making the room a bit chilly at times. we would have appreciated more seating options in the room.

    wonderful proximity to landmarks and eateries in oban

    I absolutely loved how spotless the room was, and with just a two-minute walk into town, it made my explorations to local gems like St John's Cathedral and Oban Distillery so easy and enjoyable!

    spacious room
    helpful owners
    tight ensuite

    Had a braw stay for three nights! Clean, spacious room and lovely owners who made us feel right at home. A wee downside was the en suite bit tight. it's a cracking choice close to all the action in town.

    great location
    no lift
    heating issue

    The room was cosy and comfortable, perfect for a couple. Loved the easy check-in with the key code and the excellent location—just a short walk to the town. Only downside was the heating. it wouldn’t go lower than 22 degrees. a tad tricky carrying bags up to the second floor since there’s no lift, but it's manageable. Definitely enjoyed the stay overall!

    24-hour security

    This place suits me perfectly and provides everything I need, including great wi-fi, paid parking, and 24-hour security. On my first stay, the staff helped me print my boarding pass, which I remember fondly. Highly recommend for a city break!
