The hotel is very very outdated. Wallpaper, paint mould is falling from the walls. The cobwebs have grown cobwebs. The bathroom window is held sut with a towel or two. The toilet nearly falls off when you sit you arse down. The shower is the perfect size for a little person. Once you get past the cobwebs, mould and you come come out dirtier than when when you went in. Beds was ok covers were clean beds rattled. Ive saved the positove toll last

Budget room very clean and hospitality tray excellent. Bathroom a wee bit tired as was the room but the comfortable bed and clean bedding made up for it. Had an issue with the TV not working but this was rectified immediately. Good access to restaurants as no food offering at hotel. Would defo make a return visit.

When you walk in you’re taken aback by the decor and the old pub look. The lady behind the bar was pleasant enough but too busy to talk to me as she was on her own. All the men were staring at me so I hid in the corner until eventually the lady came out. My room was on the top floor and there’s no lift. A nice customer took my case up for me. In the morning I had to bump it down 3 flights of stairs. It was cheap and dated and scruffy. And there’s no food at all!! You have to go elsewhere for something to eat. It needs renovation and a reception desk and new beds and my door was broken. I won’t go there again.

Hideous, do not stay here.
The worst hotel stay ever. Filthy damp and smelly. Mould water and leak stains on ceilings. Abominable bathroom. The communal areas full of old furniture. Fire doors wedged open, fire escape rusted, fire alarm system beeping for 3 days. Electrical putlets didnt work. Curtains were torn. A disaster waiting to happen. Honestly, go to a backpacker, it will be better. The only positive, linen was clean, staff friendly.

This hotel is above a bar but we had a top floor room so wasn’t too bad for noise. The room was and bathroom are basic but good. The places needs a bit of TLC but for a short stay is great room has everything you need and is comfortable

Vomit on the carpet stairs!
The in keeper was nice enough, but the hotel is really gross, old, run down and unkept. The pub downstairs is loud and lots of smoke. We went for a walk and when we came back the carpeted stairs were full of vomit! The makeshift shower is pathetic, TV stopped working and wouldn’t turn off, and the beds are very uncomfortable. Do not keep this hotel in your porfolio. It makes you look bad!

It’s great value for money. Right next to the train station, the ferry terminal and Wetherspoons (good pub food, handy for early breakfast). I’d definitely stay there again.

Value for money
Both our rooms had new carpets, comfortable beds , clean towels and a hospitality tray. Neither of us could get the water warm enough for a shower. The staff are friendly and helpful and the bar is our favourite in the town, it is as described in the hotel information. The location is excellent for all services .

You need to go into pub to get the key not very pleasant. We were at the top with lots of stairs. The hotel is very old and need upgraded. No hot water shower broken as only cold water. The room was clean and for the price ok. Wouldn’t come again

This hotel is very well located. Very good price compared with other Oban hotels, so understandably there are issues. The property is in poor repair, shabby and run down, however everything worked. The bedding and towels were clean, the coffee making facility was excellent, staff helpful and pleasant and regular cleaning and housekeeping. Well located hotel right in the town.

Cheap and cheerfull
This is cheap and cheerful hotel. The staff were lovely and location is central. Negatives - very outdated, not sound proof at all (I was awakened by someone snoring on the floor below me), photos were deceiving I actually dont know if the hotel comply with buildling regulations as it is literally falling apart. No hot water in the taps (shower does have hot water).
