Liked: Cleanliness
The man who checked me in was unwelcoming. He did not give any information about the breakfast or its location. He gave no information about how to operate the TV, and there was none in the room. The breakfast was limited in choice and provided in a factory-like lunch room given no attention to decoration or friendly ambience. My room itself was clean, functional, and well-appointed. The room was the best part of my stay.

Guy at the front desk was rude, he closed the pool more than 10 minutes early and he knew we were coming down for a quick swim. When i told him that we wanted a quick dip in the pool, he gave me a disgusting look and said the pools closed. This is not the room i paid for, all the furniture is beat up and broke. The bed has stains all over it. I will never come back here again. False advertisement at the Ausable Valley Inn

Great experience until the end!

Our experience was really great (clean/tidy room, check in staff was friendly and helpful) until the end of our stay. The housekeeper on the day of check out was upset with his co workers (something he stated himself) and was very rude and uptight about our check out time which was already handled by the check in/counter staff.

Solid accommodations for the price. Beds are a bit firm and breakfast is disappointing but really for what they charge, hard to ask for much more. I would stay here again

Pretty run down & dated property. Staff (one person) seemed irritated to be there. There was supposed to be continental Bfast but we didn’t see anything or anyone so we just left. Parking lot was empty (other than one car) so I suspect we were the only ones there.

A very nice place to stay if you need to go to Mio

The hotel is awesome and just a few hundred feet from the river. We visited in late December 2024 so we didn't get a chance to actually go down to the river, but there are other places to get to the river then from the hotel.
