    Not sure what the welcome pack was that I believe was referred to in the description. The TV could have been larger with better sound quality for the price charged. The small electric radiators were easy to activate but barely adequate to heat all rooms to a comfortable temperature (it is noted that we stayed in late March with some sunny days but very cold nights). The heated towel rail in the bathroom however did work well and enabled us to dry damp clothing. The description seemed to imply views over the harbour although the specific apartment allocated to us was very close to the harbour, but the only view was through a narrow archway. This made it relatively quiet and private although without specific direct views. Usually it was possible to park close to the property on the street, although at some busier times it was not possible to park the car nearby.

    Excellent fresh decor and cleanliness. Well equipped kitchen with washing machine. Comfortable large double bed and decent sofa bed with good bedding. Decent washroom with good shower and plenty of towels. Great location - short level walk to shops, pubs, restaurants, takeaways and Tobermory ferry terminal (this easy access to Kilchoan, Ardnamurchan). A good comfortable base with decent road connections from which to explore the more remote and less well equipped parts of Mull.

    The Internet was in the area that the sofa bed was in and it was really noisy. Also the accommodation smelt very damp. Also disappointed with no basic supplies on arrival.

    The location was excellent

    Nice house next to the centre of the village, restaurants and shops. One twin bed and a couch, it's ok for 4 people for a short stay. Clean and with all the needed.

    The apartment was quite dark, with two windows overlooking an internal courtyard where the rubbish bins are kept. This was not a big issue for us as we didn't spend any time in the property during the day. The wi-fi connection was not reliable and we couldn't work out how to make the TV work!

    The accommodation was very comfortable located right on the harbour next to the lifeboat station and ferry port.

    Problems with payment - this was for the 2nd 1/2 of the rent, being requested but an email address provided did not work and the mobile signal in the area was weak to non existent - the Wi-Fi / internet was excellent but without a valid email address did not help with this problem. The difficulties may lie with the owner, or with booking.com which still needs resolution.

    Location. excellent being on the Tobermory waterfront

    Only grumble would be the noisy router in the living area in apartment 2 and maybe surplus toilet tissue being left as had to buy our own, still a great wee hoose tho 😊

    Loved the location and all the facilities were excellent, it had all things I like when I'm away. Decent shower, iron and ironing board and hairdryer - if ever back in Mull I would stay here again.

    The appliance under the window (router?) was slightly noisy, but that was the only thing.

    Proximity to Tobermory Harbour and all the main amenities was superb.

    Good location but photos inaccurate

    I did feel very short-changed - both the photos of the outside of the apartment showed a completely different apartment with a seaview so I thought that was what I had booked. The apartment itself was behind that one in an inner courtyard full of bins (about 10 of them!) so the only view we had was of dustbins. This also made the apartment very dark and gloomy so we did not want to spend a moment there other than sleeping; we actually ate our fish and chips in the car when it started raining rather than go back to the apartment! The loud noise in the living room referred to by others was not the router but a cctv box. Not sure why you need cctv in a place like Tobermory but it was impossible to sleep in that room with it on. Also, the sofabed, due to its design had one quarter that sagged - it was just about ok for my daughter but would not have been suitable for more than one person.

    Location was good, right by the ferry jetty. Easy walk to many restaurants and the Co-op. Parking in Tobermory generally is very easy, none of the restrictions you have elsewhere these days.

    very confused with lack of correct information from Booking.com .. stayed in a flat over-looking a load of bins instead

    confusion from Booking.com- I was given 2 different flat numbers and codes . I went to the last notification showing a different flat number as I thought there might have been a problem in the first one given .. the company involved/ owned the flat weren’t notified .. so looking out onto bins in the flat instead of the sea ?? also booking.com gave the impression they were taking a payment on 14th June’23 .. I had already paid this amount on the 3rd June ‘23?? caused more confusion.. The flat I stayed in was well equipped but the internet box very, very noisy and so couldn’t use lounge / kitchen area for a comfortable time even a couple of minutes ? so a very confused/ uncomfortable stay … no offer of compensation either ….

    a short walk to the harbour and shops
