The apartment's central location in Oban is highly appreciated by guests, with easy access to the town centre, ferry terminal, and public transport. Its proximity to amenities and attractions is a highlight for many.
The apartment is repeatedly described as comfortable, cosy, and spacious, with a few guests noting the beds could be more to their preference. Overall, the comfort level is rated highly.

Fantastic stay at Airds crescent, lovely and clean with lots of space for myself and my family for our 7 day trip to Oban. Very comfortable apartment in a great location. Our only niggle is that the microwave did not work but we don't use a microwave anyway so didn't really bother us. Everything else was great and we would recommend this flat to anyone coming to Oban.

Beautiful apartment. Walking distance from everything. Flat was well equipped with everything you need. Shower was amazing. Plenty plug sockets. Plenty extra bedding and pillows. Area was quiet. Only thing i would've liked would be a tv in bedroom. Everything else perfect and highly recommended place to stay
