Vacances de Fairlie

Un bel hôtel pratique dans le centre d’Oban attention toutefois il n’y a pas d’ascenseur.

From the very start this was a lovely stay. A wonderful warm welcome, beautifully presented property in an outstanding location. Spacious comfy rooms with everything catered, including complimentary whisky to settle in and look at the view. Great dinner and wine list. Loved it.

Very clean and well decorated cozy property! Close to train stations and downtown. The only misses for us were: 1. The lack of directions on how to operate the washer, dryer combo in the kitchen, the stove, and the other small appliances, & TV. Simple countertop instructions would’ve been helpful and time saving. 2. Pillows on all the beds were severely flattened and the mattresses on both beds were very firm. Otherwise, great property for the price and location.

The room looks nice, and I think the location is good. However, the maintenance could definitely be better. There’s no elevator, and the fan really needs a good cleaning. There were also no instructions on how to use the Google controller, which I think is also the thermostat. After about two hours of going back and forth by email, they finally told me to use the panel on the boiler to adjust the room temperature. As someone from Thailand, I’m not used to dealing with a giant boiler connected to the radiator, so it would have been really helpful to have some clear instructions from the beginning. The cabinet under the TV also looks like it’s about to fall off the wall. They really wanted to fix that, but honestly, I would have preferred them to fix the radiator first. One night, the fire alarm went off, and on another night, I think it was a door alarm that kept going off for about five minutes. What made everything more frustrating was that all communication had to be done by email. It took a lot of back and forth just to sort out relatively simple issues. Overall, the room and location are nice, but the maintenance and communication could definitely be improved.
