A nice home-like hostel close to downtown Ashland. It has two stories, boys on the first floor, and girls upstairs (no co-ed dorms available). The common areas are downstairs. There is a full kitchen, basic dining room, and a large living room area with couches for hanging out. It's all fairly nice a clean, and it has the feel of staying in a large house.
The staff are generally friendly, and it can be a social place depending on the guests, but it's always fairly laid-back. Reservations are recommended during Shakespeare Festival season (February through October). Parking is very limited, and you may need to park in street parking a block or so away.
