We enjoyed welcoming staff they were hard working as they were short staffed but they pulled together. The hotel could have been cleaner, in the big dining room the window sills could do with a visit from house cleaning team . The food on the 1st 2 days was disappointing but improved towards the end of the week. It was in a brilliant place Oban and I would visit again
