Very well maintained home stay
Good stay esp for the price. Nice, clean, well maintained. Only downside is the toilets are shared. But the breakfast is great.

Fine option, easy parking, walkable to town center
Decent guest house. The woman who checked me in and served breakfast was friendly. The room was fine but a little dated with a lot of creaky noises and also a lot of noise transfer from neighbors but it was fine at night. Parking was easy. Morning breakfast was fine—pretty standard B&B fare. I liked that it was not right in the town center but still walkable.

On the main road with out back parking
On the main road so reasonably easy to find or turn if you go past it. Has parking for maybe 8 cars out back though a little tight. Room was pleasant, TV and wifi worked, large shower though sink tap lose. Tea and coffee making provided, had a shared living room and dining room though didn't use either. Generally quiet though walls are thin and I used a fan to create white noise for sleeping. A short distance from supermarkets and the port.

Disliked: Amenities
It was comfortable enough for me but the floor creaked the bed creaked and the walls were thin. The hosts were great people and the breakfast was adequate. It was also on a main road but it did not bother me. The shower and en suite were more modern but the towels were in need of being replaced. M

Great B&B.
The Glenview was a bit dated but was perfect for my needs. Great price and nice breakfast. The host was lovely. I would use this B&B again.

incredible breakfast buy lack of toilet roll holder and a hanger for towel in the shower room was inconvenient and shower room sliding door left a gap through which another could see in.

Review
We decided not to stay overnight. Although the hosts were welcoming, we cannot recommend the room which was pretty small. The one bedside lamp wasn’t working and there was a paint pot holding up the bed frame.

Not far away from the city centre. Comfortable stay. The only complaint was the water pressure is too little. Not a bit for a shower. The no, also the noise of ventilation fan is too much.

Short walk anywhere you need to be in Oban. Landlady was extremely helpful assisting me in locating my lost phone in Edinburgh allowing me to use her phone and got message to me. Breakfast good. Communal bathroom not my favorite but was never being used when I needed it and was anticipated. From the US and found the room a bit warm and stuffy but a good stay.
