“Good B&B”

Reviewed 25 April 2013

We stayed here for one night as we were getting an early ferry to Mull the following day. The guest house is located right on the waterfront about a 10-15 minute walk from the town centre. It has a small parking area and there is also on street parking outside. The welcome was friendly and the room was spotlessly clean... More

An Easter weekend in Oban was a spur-of-the-moment trip so we pretty booked this the night before arriving.

I booked this guest-house having looked at Alltavonas own website. The prices were higher than advertised and the breakfast was a standard full fry up, not the more varied one advertised.
