The room was clean

The breakfast that morning was absolutely appalling, both staff that were on that shift were both very rude. Twice we had to ask for service but they were both too busy in the back talking away. Clearly ignored us till suited them. There was also another family sat in the room and experienced the same service. The food was VERY VERY overpriced for what we had. 10 for one slice of avocado on toast!? And the avocado was off! I dont actually think any of us managed to even eat our food, resulting in having to take our kids else where for breakfast.

Poor

Not good for families with little kids.

The receptionist, the cook and the barmaid were all the same person. She is the only one person I like about this property.

The window was not working properly. It was not closing well. With a little push it could be open. Plus, my sons bed was in front of that window. In addition, you need to keep the bathroom door close in order not the fire alarm keep running. The breakfast was very simple. Also, there was no elevator.

Excellent modern hotel

This is the best hotel I have stayed in, in Oban. It was modern, clean and comfortable. The staff were very helpful. I liked the breakfast very much - french toast with maple syrup. The location was ideal for me - about five minutes walk from the railway station (and ferry terminal), and also five minutes from the Tesco supermarket, and near the main street of the town.

Being really picky I didn't like the croissants!
