Low budget hotel, brilliant and informative staff, perfect location near shops etc. The room was brand-new, bright. View of sunsets was delightful. It was good to have warm drinks in the bistro bar.

The property met the demands, we would book here again. Our stay here was excellent, relaxing base for exploring Oban. Booked suite, that included an electronic key card, cable channels and ironing facilities. The breakfast had a wide array of selection, the food was alright: D
