4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We picked this place because it had excellent ratings. My experience was: Very difficult to unload car on an incredibly tight road. I had a heated row with a local resident who was very aggressive. The parking which was at a public viewing point was up a steep hill about 400 meters away. The bathroom was not cleaned well with unpleasant marks in the toilet, dusty bin lids etc. cobwebs and dirt on window. House was run down and very outdated. Walk into town was about 12 minutes down steep hill. The positives were: it was quiet, some nice snacks and free small continental breakfast. I wouldn’t recommend this place . I find the perfect 10 scores hard to understand.

Great quick stay

Excellent short stay as we prepare to take the ferry to Mull. Great proximity to Oban, up on the hill above the town, so quiet and peaceful. Incredible view facing west from the car park! Lovely stay in a clean and comfy room.

Place was clean and the host was super kind. A bit of an uphill walk if youre coming from the town but it is really close to a lovely viewpoint that overlooks the town. Very nice at sunset!

Caroline was an excellent host. She greeted me upon arrival and recommended things to do and places to visit on my stay here. The room was very tidy, had a heater and complimentary coffee, tea and some snacks for breakfast. Everything was well maintained and the views nearby of Oban were spectacular

6/10 Okay

I was made to feel very welcome and was very comfortable here. The bed was large and comfortable, television great. The breakfast unexpected was lovely to have cereal, yogurt. Milk, apple juice, biscuits and tea/coffee/chocolate. I shared a bathroom which was fine as vloseby, I had my own toilet and sink which was great. The house looked in need of repair and there was a damp smell. It is uphill from the village so need to take. £5 taxi from the station up. The walk downhill on a narrow busy road is about 15mins and easy enough. There is a luggage storage near the station search for bounce and book it in if needed. Oban is small and cute.
