The only property we could choose nearby for our purposes. Rooms need some R&M and wiring/plugs were in poor condition. Had to ask for basics as well such as crockery and cutlery and packet coffee/tea. Has a small cafe attached for basic breakfast or lunch purchase in need.

Charged more than the amount quoted when booking via Expedia (discount was not applied… I was charge the whole regular rate). Place is ok as a bed before heading out to camp early the next morning… nothing more.

The Apsley Inn and Restaurant provided exactly the accommodations we needed on our work trip in the area. The rooms were clean, and the staff on-site was extremely flexible in accommodating our off-hour check-in and check-out times as well. I would recommend this motel for people needing a place to stay locally

Ok
Ok motel. Beds were like plywood boards ( new mattresses needed asap) and the room had no where to hang a coat or even a dresser for clothes. Nice view out the back window though

Waterless
We arrived Friday evening and had room #2. When we woke up Saturday morning we had no water. Our toilet wouldn’t flush and the sink only dripped out red nasty muddy stuff. I went and told the owners about it and they said they will fix it. At 6:00 pm we still had no water so we just spent all day Saturday with no water. They finally moved us to another room and when we went into the other room we had water but it was also red and rusty. When we told the owners about it again they offered us a free coffeee. So basically we had no usable water for the whole weekend. We also had some weird bug crawling on the walls.

Sorry for all inconvenience, Due to extreme cold weather we had couple of pipes frozen that caused water issue. It took time to fix it because of weekend. Please visit us again we will make to your satisfaction. Thank you.

Asphalt in driveway/parking lot in front of rooms is uneven. Be careful when parking motorcycles - mine fell over when moving it. Room was adequate with no extras. Only 2 pillows and one was 2" thick. No desk or space to place anything. No bottled water or coffee maker. No pen or paper. ONE light in the room so it was dim. Restaurant was ok - breakfast potatoes are the frozen variety. Nothing special but price was good. Staff are new to the area and don't know of any attractions or history of the motel. I asked if there was previously a gas station on site, and the woman started telling me where the nearest gas station was. You get way you pay for.

it was supposed to be two queen size beds for both rooms, but when we got there, we only got one room with one queen and a single and the other room with just one queen bed. The staff is really nice.. understand they had a busy weekend, but they should not advertise two queen-size beds if that is not available

Pros - cheap, clean room, very friendly check-in, a/c & fridge worked Cons - Tiny, shabby room. The booking said 2 queen beds, but had a twin and a queen with very basic mattresses. The door lock didn't seem secure, and there was no latch on the large bathroom window.

Too much furniture crammed into a too-small room; barely any room to move or put things down. Dead bugs all over the place. Sign says ‘under new management’ and it looks like they’re trying to freshen things up (new-looking bathroom tile, etc.) and I hope they continue to do so (including a deep-clean of windows) because it’s not worth nearly the money charged as it is currently. We were hoping to enjoy it, but will not be back.

This is a typical mom-and-pop highway motel, constructed decades ago. Facilities are basic: bed, bathroom, TV, microwave, bar fridge and a few pieces of furniture. It has clearly seen better days. The current owners took over only a few months ago, so they can't be faulted for any of the deficiencies. The restaurant serves a basic menu. Breakfast was good. Keep your expectations modest if you book a stay here.
