Clean

Good location, good amenities & some friendly staff.

Sink height was too low and I’m average height.

The air purifier/dehumidifier in the room was a nice surprise and made it feel less like the typical hotel experience. The decor of the room and building was nice and homey, sort of old world style; the bathroom was clean and spacious, and the breakfast (and breakfast area) was lovely! The staff was also pleasant and helpful. The front desk person even went up to the kitchen to get me some tea bags after I inquired if they had any in the evening. So nice!

The one thing we found odd about the room was the bed. It was a sheet, then something that was either an uncovered duvet or a plain white comforter that was very stained, and then another sheet on top of it, just sort of tucked over the comforter thing. I thing having a sheet over the duvet is a nice idea because then the top of the bed where people sit will always be washed between guests, but it’s strange that they’d leave an uncovered and stained duvet easily visible when you peel back a little of the top sheet. Seems like you could still put a nice cover on it, or just get a cleaner comforter, and continue to do the sheet on top for hygienic purposes.

Not is the Stratford relatively close to the shops and restaurants in downtown Ashland, but the staff, particularly Christy (sp.?) in the breakfast area was abundantly engaging and informative.

The hotel is a tad older and the room size was certainly ample, but not generous.

The staff was friendly and helpful, the indoor pool a real treat after being on the road all day. the real plus is the hot oatmeal breakfast plus extras. We've stayed here before and will again.

Breakfast was not great

The staff were so friendly and personable! Halloween was such a fun time to visit Ashland !

Everything was great. Some eggs, bacon would be nice in the breakfast but I could not be happier with my stay.

Very tasteful decor with posters from past Shakespeare festivals. The rooms have hardwood floors and are kept very clean, there is a fridge and microwave in the room. Staff are very friendly too. The location next door to Safeway is a bonus.

Breakfast was OK. It could be expanded to include more hot items.
