Liked: Free breakfast and cheap internet. Well-located, easy access to all of Oban (although it's not a very big city!). Staff were super friendly and everyone hung out in the lounge so it was easy to meet people.

Edith Lendak

11 April 2007 Edith would recommend this property

Liked: The way it was furnished. Great idea about naming the beds in the rooms. The bed was almost more comfortable than mine at home :-). And also true duvets were provided not only a thin blanket as usual in hostels. The decoration of the lounge and dining area was simple great. And the scone for breakfast was simple delicious!

Liked: I liked the free hot chocolate, tea, and coffee. Simple, I know, but when you're as broke as I was, this was a delight. I also really enjoyed the tour connecting the hostels of this company. Fun, informative, and our guide (Ewan) was great! I really do recommend that backpackers stay at these hostels.
