We always enjoy our stay at Bird-in-Hand. Staff is so very friendly and helpful, even though they are undergoing construction after a fire at their restaurant, everything ran smoothly, and their temporary restaurant was great! Looking forward to coming back!

disappointed
I have stayed here in the past so did not hesitate to book again..given a room in what I would consider the ground floor or basement level...the 200's section. You could see the pool off to the side and some garden area. after we got settled I noticed an odor in the room...chlorine or chemical...I would have moved but my family member did not want to...after returning from dinner I noticed the room was more of a musty smell. The bed was awful as were the pillows...the mattress was lumpy and you had to make sure you moved to the middle of the bed to be somewhat comfortable. I had not encountered this in the past. The bathroom is tiny. I was disappointed in my stay as I have stayed in the past in various rooms and not encountered these issues. If I were alone I would have pushed for a different room. I am not sure if I would return to this hotel based on this. I did mention the mattress to the clerk upon checking out and she said she "would mention it to them". I was not asked at check out how my stay was so I offered the comments to them about the mattress.

I love coming to Bird in hand family inn. My family and I have gone atleast once a year for the past 10 years. This last time the experience was different. I believe they are remodeling but I am not sure. The pool area was extremely unclean. There’s was mold around the hot tub and the pool looked very dirty. That unfortunately made our experience not so pleasing as we usually love their amenities. We decided against getting in. Hopefully they bring the place back up to healthy conditions.
