Really disappointed to have to pay for parking
Pros:

Great location for our onward trip to Mull

Cons:

We have never been charged for parking and I’m really unhappy to have to pay for parking and it would probably stop us staying here again

A fabulous stay we just wish we had been staying for longer
Pros:

We stayed in studio 1, it had everything we needed a big comfy bed and huge bathroom, the kitchen was really well equipped and the little extras of tea, coffee, milk and sugar meant we could relax as soon as we arrived after a long drive. The heating was easy to use.
The Scot is very well positioned and parking at the rear was easy to access, there was a £10 charge but as we walked around Oban the car parks all seemed to be pay and display and street parking(if you could find a space) was only free from 6pm to 9am, it was actually a small price to pay to be able to park at 3pm when we arrived and not leave until 11am the following day in a safe place.
We didn’t have breakfast as there are plenty of places to eat, but I did go into the bar and everyone seemed to be enjoying their food and it did look and smell delicious.

Cons:

The studio does not have a window it has 2 big skylights but as The Scot sits one street back from the harbour front you wouldn’t really have a view anyway. It definitely wouldn’t put us off from booking again though.

Location was great, the staff was warm and friendly, but bed was a bit uncomfortable for me.
Pros:

It was a very clean room.

Cons:

The bed was extremely firm. If you like a firm bed, it would be great, but I woke up a bit sore as I like a softer mattress.
