Our stay at Apple Farm Inn was very pleasant. Check-in was fast and efficient. Our room was located in the main building and was quiet, which made for a restful stay. The bed was very comfortable, and we slept well throughout the night.

We've stayed here many times over the past 25 years. The hotel is still so quaint and cozy but the condition is not as immaculate as it was in past years. Furnishings, paint, etc. could use some sprucing up. Amenities previously offered are no longer and we miss the old gift shop. We still enjoyed our stay and the Christmas decorations.

Room, especially the bathroom is dated and dark. Staff though was all around very friendly and helpful. Not sure what happened to the restaurant but it’s only open for breakfast and brunch. Food was ok, nothing special.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
It was ok at best. Very loud at night next to the highway and people slamming doors all night. You have to request house keeping which is ok i guess. Best part about the whole experience is the “free” amenities that they charge you $40 bucks a night for (on top of the room, weather you use it or not) is 1 cookie per stay and wine tasting some generic wine and they expect tips. To top it all off when I checked out they gave me a $600 bill for someone else’s stay. I would not recommend and i will not be staying here again.

This is a very cute place with quite reasonable rates. The cookies, coffee and hot apple cider in the lobby, and nightly wine tasting are lovely touches, and the staff was friendly. I really enjoyed my stay and would stay here again IF I were not planning on working during my visit. My only real complaint is that the wireless connection went offline repeatedly. When it went offline, it would only go out for a minute or two at a time, but it was constant, like every five minutes. Became very frustrating. Everything else was charming and comfortable.

Front desk was very welcoming and helpful. Nicely decorated for Christmas. Room was wonderful - tasteful and spacious and clean. Only negative I have is the wine tasting from 5-7. The person serving the wine did not seem to know anything about the wines and was more interested in watching a soccer game he had on TV.
