Wonderful atmosphere and hosts, walk to theaters, organic food. This is a special getaway that is thoroughly enjoyable. We will return to this B&B as soon as possible.

The Albion was the perfect place for a quiet weekend of grading papers and simply getting out of town for two days. The customer service was excellent - and "green." Cyd & Gary Ropp cook organic breakfasts and provide organic soaps and shower gels at their inn. The abstract art by acclaimed artist Robert Burridge made the inn feel more like an modern art gallery than a victorian bed and breakfast.

Access to the internet on my laptop was easy - the inn has wi-fi throughout. Locating the inn itself was easy as Cyd provided excellent directions. The Albion rates are affordable, particularly in the current economy. I would recommend spending a few days in Ashland at the Albion even if you have no desire to watch a Shakespearean play. There are great pubs, restaurants, stores, and parks to emmerse oneself in. --Heidi English, college professor

Charming 5 guest room B&B in charming Ashland; what more could you wish for? Wi-fi, and even Wii in the living room. Quiet (on the library end of town), homey, romantic. Fine even in the off-season; would be a great base for the theater fest.

Our stay at the Albion was remarkably pleasant and I feel moved to share some of the highlights. We wanted to enjoy some family snow play, so we traveled up from the Bay Area to Ashland. The Albion Inn is close to the Ashland Mountain snow parks, where we were able to enjoy fields of sparkling snow on quiet mountain paths. Mornings at the inn, we enjoyed delicious breakfasts (pannetone french toast!) and coffee. There was also a tea station available at all times with a large selection of teas. My husband and I slept in the Garden View room, which overlooks an artfully designed Japanese-style garden. Our windows also provided a gaspingly lovely view of the snowy mountains. The quiet and beauty of the spot inspired me to sit down at the desk by the window and get some writing done that I'd been putting off. Academic research help was at hand - the Ashland public library is a block away. There is wi-fi for keeping in touch with the outside world. My teenage daughter enjoyed playing games on the wii in the lounge room, and reveled in the privacy of her own room, the Chautauqua, with a velvet fainting couch and magnificent bed. We were refreshed by spending time in the garden, which hosts ruby-throated hummingbirds and seating for both quiet meditation and for social visiting. The innkeeper, Cyd Ropp, was welcoming and kind. I recommend the Albion for a sprit-refreshing experience! Writers beware: the muse is alive in the Garden View room! Oh, and one more thing - the claw footed bathtub is lovely!
