The rooms haven’t been updated in some time but that was part of the charm for us. We felt like we had stepped back in time a bit and the chipped paint and wallpaper pealing in the corners was part of the fun as the room was clean and the bed was comfortable

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The parking was very tight. When I asked at reception about alternatives the young man looked at the CCTV and told me there were "plenty spaces" . I'm actually an Observer with the Institute of Advanced Motorists and there were no spaces without everyone having to reverse out onto the street. But it was his argumentative attitude.

Minimal parking at the property, and most Oban car parks are pay and display. Property itself was quite outdated, with wallpaper coming off the wall and the room being very small Staff were fantastic and helpful, the location was perfect for experiencing Oban, and the food was very nice.
