A bit smaller than I expected and the room had no windows, but otherwise a clean, quiet, convenient location. Perfect for a one night stop.

The Pierrooms is a great option for those looking to explore and stay in Oban on a budget. It has all the cleanliness and amenities of a full-blown hotel. The rooms are pretty small, but that wasn't an issue for us. The air conditioner in the room helps keep the room cool and comfortable, and keeps the air moving and from getting too humid. All in all, I would stay again!

This is a great spot for a good nights sleep. The rooms optimize space so it is meant to be a place to drop your bags. It’s clean well appointed and the value and location are phenomenal.

The location was great. The keyless entry only works if you have a cell phone with data which was an issue for me. The AC unit dripped all night and made the carpet wet.

So happy we booked again

We were looking for easy access to the railway station and ferry port - Pierrooms could not have been closer to both. The room is small but we were so impressed with the overall cleanliness and comfort of the beds that we booked again for our return journey. The only improvement I would suggest is a small shelf for the top bunk.

Excellent position next to ferry train station and in the busy part of town The only downside, which I knew before booking, was the room was without a window but I would book again.

Facility new, well thoughtout for minimal size room. Perhaps interested; toilet drain leaked. Staff cleaned up and left extra towels. Very close trains, ferries, buses. I did not receive all emails from property they claimed sent to Expedia. Finalizing the stay was not enjoyable experience.

Room was okay the bed was quite high and hard to get up to, I am 5’2 and felt a small step up would have helped greatly I had to jump down. It’s not easy being vertically challenged! The room itself was okay there was a loud buzzing sound all night I couldn’t work out where it was coming from. When I first checked in my room door wasn’t shut properly so anyone already in could have been in there I am not sure if it is the door itself because I had to pull closed whenever I left the room.
