“It's a genuinely comfortable place, and the beds are something to note for their sheer comfort. The location is quite central, making it easy to step out and explore, and the parking is a welcome bonus in Oban. What stood out was the staff's attentiveness; they seemed ready to go the extra mile, like procuring extra hangers on short notice.”
