Very expensive for a smelly (musty) room with a lumpy bed and a comforter with insides that fell to the bottom of the bed. I would choose a different place to stay.

This property needs an upgrade. However for the price and location it seems appropriate. We did not have hot water in our room, it was lukewarm. That was a deal breaker. I let the front desk know and they would investigate. The beds were pretty squishy and uncomfortable. However, I love the location and staff. And the price was reasonable.

This was such a fun quirky place to stay. They take pets - we were traveling with our cat. The entire place is themed with a renaissance theme down to the stationary. There were some dated fixtures but the room felt super homey and was very clean and comfortable. It was also very quiet. We barely heard anyone which was refreshing. You can tell that the staff members care about the property. The pool and hot tub looked inviting. The breakfast was better than we were anticipating. Fresh pancakes! Fresh eggs and sausage. Coffee, juice, milk, bagels, cereal, yogurts. It really had something for everyone. Only small downside was the bathroom. It was cold and the shower didn’t heat up all the way. We didn’t spend that much time in there … because it was the bathroom. We would totally stay again. We loved how walkable everything was. There are many dining options and shops nearby.

After staying at another less expensive property in Ashland, Bard’s was a let down in every way. First it was a motel, which we were not expecting. There are several different complexes and it is hard to tell what you have booked. Second, we did not have hot water for our shower. When we called it in, we were told “yea, that happens when we are full. The whole building shares one water heater so that’s as good as it gets.” The rooms were cold and the bedding was sparse. On the positive side, location was superb and staff were friendly. But honestly there are much better options in Ashland.
