Harbour View in Oban offers a comfortable stay with stunning views, well-equipped facilities, and a convenient location for exploring the town and accessing transport links. The property is praised for its space and value, though some minor issues with maintenance and cleanliness have been noted.
The property is generally clean, but there was an isolated incident of an unclean oven. This suggests room for improvement in cleaning between stays.
The location is highly praised for its excellent position, great views, and proximity to local amenities, transport links, and the town centre.
Guests find the property comfortable, with ample space and comfortable beds, though there is a mention of the shower's power being less than ideal.
The property is well-equipped and has a friendly host. However, there were issues with ongoing construction and a lack of instructions for WiFi access.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the host, so this category cannot be scored.

Helen
Fabulous house and fabulous views. Flexible to meet us on arrival. Very friendly and helpful host. The house has everything you need and a well equipped kitchen. Double bedroom and bathroom on ground floor was perfect for my sister that struggles with stairs. Spacious double room upstairs and twin room upstairs with good hanging and storage units. Lovely upstairs bathroom. Location is perfect for walking around the town and car parking on the same street or very close to the property, Great views from the windows. I would recommend this house to visitors. The power in the shower is not great but well maintained. There were no instructions for accesing Wifi. I would suggest disposing of left over out of date and opened condiments such as mustard, tomato sauce etc that were in the kitchen cupboard.

Excellent position in the town. Great view over the North Pier area and well placed for the town, eating places and only 5- 10 minutes walk from the ferry terminal, bus terminus and station. Very good value for money. Everything you need is there. Comfortable and plenty of space for everyone. Not luxurious but ideal for family and friends. Would recommend to friends and family.
