The room and bath are spacious and clean. The staff is friendly and attentive. Great value for the price and frankly, better than expected from the "2 stars" rating on Expedia.

Very rustic, no frills property. Bakery across the street was delicious in the morning
The hotel room was very nice. However, we couldn't get anybody at the front desk to help us with anything.It was all via text and a phone call. And it was a little on the expensive side for what was provided.
We were pleasantly surprised about Apple Tree Inn! We were staying in Julian for 2 nights, and we had a good time! The place was clean with a great rustic feel (no bugs either! We thought we would have to fight critters due to the area). It is right next and across the street from some restaurants so you have easy access to food, and staff were attentive (through messaging) if we ever stay again, we will definitely look into staying here again
Clean, comfortable, somewhat over-priced rooms in a beautiful quiet area. When walking nearby I saw deer in the grass and shared the road with a flock of wild turkeys.
This property has a very late 4pm check in. If you need to check in earlier it costs an extra $40. There was no plug in near the vanity. The couple who helped us check in and answered our questions were very nice and professional. We will recommend.
Great location and the rooms were very clean. The rooms looked like they had been recently updated. The grounds were not very well maintained. They obviously took out the pool and left the pump house behind and even the skimmer. There was a wrought iron gate just laying on the ground with an orange cone on it. I think this property has a lot of potential but it needs some TLC!
