What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“A great stay! Rooms where clean and tidy. Owners are super nice and friendly and welcoming. The place is has a nice warming feel. If your looking for a place to rest and relax from the road I would deffently book a spot here.”
“My wife and I stayed here over part of Memorial Day weekend. Our room was nice, if a bit small, and the bed was more firm than is my preference (but my wife very much liked the bed's firmness). My single biggest "complaint" -- as petty as this may sound -- is that the toilets are "old" ... the small "circle" kind of seat ... and I've become accustomed to the newer "oval" seats that are larger (and honestly, more comfortable). The toilet paper is typical of many hotels -- "inexpensive" -- not as bad a "cheap" ... but not "Charmin" either! However, the location is great for trips to Melbourne to visit my family there. It can be a very quiet place, depending on how many people are there -- and the front porch is a nice place to sit when the temperature and humidity are nice. Overall, Ashley House is nice, though the "Bed & Breakfast" is a bit misleading now. I miss the "old days" when this was a "bed and breakfast" place in the "homecooked" sense, though -- having cereal or a toasted (frozen) waffle or plastic-wrapped pastry just isn't the same as a cooked breakfast like eggs, gravy, and biscuits. The reservation system is great -- just call and ask if a room is available, and if it is, you're all set up! As I said, however, overall, Ashley House is nice.”
“Loved our stay, however I'm pretty sure it's haunted!!”
“My daughter rented the Kate House Jan. 16th - Jan. 19th and it was nice. The house was nice to have since we had a sitting area along with a sleeping area which helped when each of us get up at different times. Everyone we spoke to while we are there was very polite. Check in and check out was very easy as well.”
“My daughter and I traveled to Melbourne, AR from Benton, AR for an Easter family reunion. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Ashley House B&B. It was beautifully decorated, quiet and peaceful; but we especially loved relaxing in the rocking chairs on the front porch. I would definitely recommend this place.”
