Perfect place to stay for one or two nights - if staying longer would choose bigger room.

Pros: Lovely place in ideal location - a few minutes walk from town but with easy parking nearby. Decor very appealing and welcoming.

Cons: Nothing to note for a one night stay. For several nights would choose bigger room but I knew that when I booked.

Great spot, comfy and quaint

Pros: Cosy room in a very quaint B&B. Interesting decor. Our room for 2 nights and bed was very comfortable, not sure all rooms the same. Had a lovely bath. We didn't do the breakfast but it looked good. Good location for Oban, a short walk from the busy town.

Oban lovely stay

Pros: the beautiful place with amazing vibe and design. very clean, we really love the bathroom, a spacious shower. lovely welcoming, easy access to the room. great location, not far away from the center with a parking place. except the bed it's a gem!

Cons: unfortunately we did have no good sleep, the metal bed was creak constantly with every move, the mattress was very soft what didn't help. could you please fix it? - room 2 the breakfast price has been increased on day arrival, we understand the reason, but the page should be updated.

Lovely place and comfortable stay

Pros: We found it was well located to the town. Everyone was really friendly and rooms were very nice.

Cons: It was a bit tricky to negotiate cars blocking other cars in, but they handle it pretty well. We didn't have the breakfast as that was an extra charge
