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.

Property is very convenient but in need of updating. The breakfast was not up to Best Western standards with no fruit on offer, not even a mouldy banana.

This is the perfect place to stay in Ashland. You are just a block away from the plaza and park. The room was nothing amazing, but it was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was a typical hotel breakfast, but everything was edible and there was a good variety. Michael was one of the front office staff that was extra helpful and made our stay that much better.

We’ve stayed at this property many times. Both on our own and when I used to bring student groups to the Shakespeare festival. The rooms closest to the office, are old and looking worn out. It’s also not as quiet and roomy as the rooms across the street on the other two parts of the property. The tv didn’t work properly. It is supposed to allow for sharing picture from your cell phone but it did not work.
