Aird’s Apartment was just perfect for my friend and I. It had everything we needed, was clean, fresh and modern. It’s in a fantastic position for access to everything in Oban and for travelling to the islands. Everything in easy walking distance. I would easily book this again if returning to the area and recommend it to everyone. We only had 2 small problems. Having never used a key box before we struggled to open it and ended up have to make contact with someone who could help us. Instructions on how to open it would have helped. Also we bought a cheap shower mat as the shower tray was a bit slippy for a pair of pensioners.
