点评:Oban for us was just a place to spend the night to catch an early morning ferry to Mull we didn't really know what to expect and it wasn't a destination of choice -- just a place where we had to go to get the ferry. We were pleasantly surprised though -- was a charming little town with a great vibe and beautiful views, and we would like to go back to explore more. We visited McCaig's Tower -- found it a bit odd to see a replica of the Colisseum in Scotland -- not worth going out of your way to visit. We had dinner at The Royal Hotel which was one of the best seafood meals we had during our two-week visit to Scotland. There were some great shops in Oban too selling art -- we went there twice to buy prints. We stayed at Three Oban because it was close to the ferry and had three bedrooms which we needed. Was a great accommodation but the owner was extremely rude. He ruined our morning by showing up 15 minutes before our check-out time to clean - he walked in without knocking, complained about the cost of parking for him to come and clean, and was just plain rude and mean. Someone in our party had lost her $2000 retainer and airpods just as he walked in and she was trying to find them so needed a bit more time to search the apartment. He made her feel like a nuisance and never once offered to contact us if he found them. So Oban for us was a mix of bad experiences, amazing experiences, oddities, but overall a place we will return to to explore a bit more.
翻译:对我们来说,奥本只是一个过夜的地方,以便赶上早上去马尔岛的渡轮,我们真的不知道会发生什么,这也不是我们的首选目的地——只是一个我们必须去乘渡轮的地方。但我们却感到惊喜——这是一个迷人的小镇,有着很棒的氛围和美丽的景色,我们想再回去探索更多。我们参观了麦凯格塔——发现看到苏格兰斗兽场的复制品有点奇怪——不值得特意去参观。我们在皇家酒店吃了晚餐,那是我们在苏格兰两周旅行期间吃过的最好的海鲜餐之一。奥本也有一些很棒的艺术品商店——我们去了那里两次买版画。我们住在奥本三号,因为它靠近渡轮,并且有我们需要的三间卧室。住宿很棒,但是主人非常粗鲁。他提前15分钟就来打扫,把我们早上的时光都毁了——他没敲门就走了,还抱怨他来打扫的停车费太高,而且态度粗鲁刻薄。就在他进来的时候,我们一行人中有人丢了她价值2000美元的牙套和AirPods,她正想找,所以需要多花点时间翻找公寓。他让她觉得自己很讨厌,而且从来没有主动提出过如果找到了会联系我们。所以,奥本对我们来说是一段糟糕的经历,有美好的经历,也有奇怪的经历,但总的来说,我们还会再来,继续探索。
