Red Apple Inn

We were in a similar situation to everyone else that reviewed this place, stuck in Tillamook and this was the only lodging left. The owner gave us a «deal» of $ 100 per night if we stayed two nights, we took it. First night we realized: 1. The sheets were too small for the bed, every time my boyfriend or I turned over the sheet popped off the corner of the mattress. 2. The mattress had a huge dip in the center. 3. The walls are paper thin. 4. The towels are sized for 10 year olds.
The second day we came back to our room expecting to find the bed made, trash taken out, and coffee restocked. None of that had happened. When we asked the owner informed us that guests have ask for room cleaning if they are staying over. They did take out the trash and changed the sheets (to another set that did not fit.) When we were leaving I found a pair of socks that did not belong to my boyfriend or I.
DON’T STAY HERE

Stayed on June 26^th 2015 during PIRATE convention ((ROCKAWAY BEACH OR)), and a City Parade (TILLAMOOK OR)). The area was fully booked. Cheapest place to stay that was available through Pricelline

was CHARGING $ 350.00 a nite.{{I DONT THINK SO}} called all places to stay from Manzanita south to Tillamook and even in to Netarts NO AVAILABILITY. We called directly to Red Apple Inn, a lady with Sweet Voice answered and Said ’ VACACY. We’ll take it, she stated, NO RESERVATIONS, first come first served basis. She asked for First Name and how long before I arrive? ½ hr we stated, we loaded the van from Jetty Fishery in Rockaway Beach and sped off south towards Red Apple Inn. Arrival was quite easy{{GPS}}, parked and went to check in. Lady very friendly and kind. Questions if we needed upper room or lower, Lower rooms are a bit noisy she stated. She also mentioned a PARADE in the morning of the next day. Room size Large, Bath Small, Red Lite in Bathroom BTW., Beds old but could have been worst. Dated but who cares when you need a shower and sleep. Towels a bit small but does its JOB. Switches and Ligthing a bit strange but it WORKED. TV was old BUT had HGTV wich was AWESOME. Floors were Linoleum but Weared Shoes at All times. an OK Stay due to HIGH OCCUPANCY IN TILLAMOOK OREGON. :) 3***Stars for Room and 5***** Stars for Wife and Husband TEAM. TRY SLEEP A 11 YR, 17YR AND MUM ON A BED… WE HAD AN AWESOME STAY IN TILLAMOOK, RED APPLE, MEMORIES ARE MADE TO LAST.

This was the only room within 60 miles that was available. (I called a lot of hotels) Luckily it’s in Tillamook where I was working. The lady was pleasant on the phone and said it was her last room and she would only hold it for an hour. No reserving it over the phone. In person she was VERY pleasant. The rooms are small and we paid $ 160 for a typical $ 40/​night room. Beds are very hard but I was tired so I still slept good. No towels in our room. Air conditioner worked great. Rooms dark n quiet. Hotel was really great vs our evening venture for dinner.

We stopped late last minute en route from So Cal to Seattle. The lady at the desk was very friendly and helpful, but I certainly didn’t think it was worth nearly $ 90/​night. We were put in a smoking room because we had a dog (I think) and the TV was small and old, the room smelled terribly, and the mattress was basically a pile of poky springs that jabbed our ribs as we slept. This motel is in serious need of a renovation, and I’m still in serious need of a good night’s sleep.

I called for 3 rooms and the lady on the phone said they were available. I asked if I could reserve them with a credit card (we would be there in a few hours). She said «no, it’s first come first serve and we’ll just have to hope that they are still available». REALLY? What kind of service is that? Well, they just lost 3 sales… needless to say, we didn’t say!

We were in a pinch when our back window of our car got smashed in by a drive by rock attack off the freeway, and we needed a place to say. Red Apple Motel was right on Main St. and was easily found. The woman at the desk was really sweet and accommodating, and our room with one bed was only $ 70. It had a shower, bed, TV, and a mini fridge. We had a pleasant nights sleep and then we were able to pop into the breakfast place that the two owners of the motel ran and cooked all the food at.
I was really impressed. The woman cooked all the food while the husband took orders. Typical breakfast goodies like eggs, pancakes, French toast, coffee, etc. A really cute restaurant experience overall.
I was really pleasantly surprised with our emergency stop at this place and I highly recommend it for a cheap and simple place to spend a night.

DO NOT STAY HERE!!! This place is an overpriced dump and the owners are dishonest and sneaky. We called and asked rates for a room with a king bed and were quoted $ 86 plus tax. The owners seemed nice over the phone so we went into the office. As we walked in, the owner proclaimed that the rooms are nice and clean so we decided to stay — the room came to $ 97 with tax. We told them again we were looking for a king bed in a quiet room, preferably upstairs. My boyfriend is a very light sleeper. We got room number 21… with a double bed!!! My boyfriend went down to the office since we paid for a king bed. The owner acted as if there was a language barrier and that she hadn’t understood we wanted a king bed. She then explained that all the king bed rooms are on the lower level and would cost $ 10 more. WTF!!! We were quoted $ 86 over the phone for a king bed… now it costs more? Whatever, liars! So, we went back to the room and noticed that several of the lights didn’t work. What a dump! Plus, we could hear the person in the room next to us coughing and sneezing. There were only 3 rooms occupied the night we stayed (including us), we had specifically asked for a quiet room, and they put us in a room right next to an occupied room knowing that the walls are paper thin?! We are severly irritated at this point. So, we went back to the office and asked for a different room. The owner told us no — that we’d already used the room and that she’d have to clean it. We assured her that we had not used anything in the room and that we needed a different room so that we could get sleep. She had her husband come check out the room and they then allowed us to move to room 18 but warned us, «no more changes!» Room 18 is dirty and old — hair shavings in the sink, a used lightbulb under the table, and my allergies are starting to act up. I absolutely would NEVER stay here again and I will go out of my way to let other people know they shouldn’t stay here either. It’s gross. Plus, the tv is old and tiny and the picture is fuzzy on every channel. There is an unlabeled commercial style soap dispenser in the shower with nothing in it — so you don’t even get shampoo or soap at this dump. I don’t know how these people stay in business when they have horrible rooms and even worse service and I feel like I was totally fooled being charged for a king bed and then being told it will cost more for one. Screw this dumpy motel and pick any other one in Tillamook. You cannot go as wrong as we did at the Red Apple Inn.

Ok. I should note that I live in Netarts that is closer to Oceanside (along the coast) then Tillamook. But, most of the stuff I do is in Tillamook so whenever I can get out of Tillamook we do. We drive far and enjoy so many other places. Not the case today (saturday)being my hubby had to work. So, he heard from some of his co-​workers that this little place wasn’t too bad and the Unilocal reviews seemed more favorable to the Red apple than other Tillamook places for breakfast. You know, I like this place. The people were very nice and pleasant. It is a local spot sorta on the south side so it wasn’t crazy busy. I prefer this than The Pancake House or Denny’s. I had pancakes w/​bacon and coffee. I like my pancakes on the brown side not that cookie dough color and to my delight they came out JUST the way I like them. Not to fluffy, about the size of a salad plate. Just like my mom used to make. Four strips of standard bacon, easy on the teeth and not limp or overcooked. The coffee was good and it was in med. size cups not those small dinky cups. It was closer to 11:00 so my husband had a burger w/​fries. He said it was very good. They put a little secret sauce on it so you might want to tell them you want it plain if u dont like that. I snook a couple of fries and they were hot and crispy sorta like Mcdonalds with less salt. The place is clean and cute and I noticed everyone else cleaned their plates like we did. Just regular food without the overpowering old greasy taste like some places in the Mook. This will be my go to place during the week for breakfast for sure. Our total came to almost $ 17.00,not bad. We payed with cash so I don’t know about debit cards at the café. Sorry:)
As a side note I did look at one of the Motel rooms since the door was opened and it was being cleaned. It looked nice and cozy. Its a clean place and looks like its cared for and not run down. I would stay there and have my meals at the adjoining café. I don’t think they serve dinner tho. Trip Advisor web site did give the motel section some pretty bad reviews so you might want to check into it before you stay.
I will also note that I am mixed race african american and white. I was not offended by the aunt jemima figurines. My grandma had a few:)

We just ate in the little restaurant. Don’t know anything about the motel and won’t comment on it.
The restaurant however, was terrific. It appears to be run by a Korean family with a distinct penchant for collecting kitsch. The place is absolutely full to the rafters with stuff. Interesting to look at all of it. Note: There are shelves full of kitschy glassware. All of it is neatly organized. There is one shelf in there that has nothing but antique glass figurines of black people. Mostly Aunt Jemima type statuettes. I know that this is just collectible old stuff and there is nothing racial or biased at all about these figurines or the fact that they are displayed here, but some folks can get kind of sensitive about this kind of thing.
This is a very small place. We counted 5 four seat tables and a counter with 10 places to sit. The place is very clean and neat (despite the collected stuff virtually everywhere). The bathrooms are clean and well kept.
We got there just before noon on our way back to Portland. We’ve never been there and were looking for a new place to grab a breakfast. We tend to favor small, funky Mom & Pop places and this place fit the bill exactly.
The people are very pleasant and welcoming. Folks eating there appeared to be mostly regulars which is almost always a good sign.
They serve breakfast and lunch at that time of day. There is a pretty good basic breakfast menu and a decent lunch menu with both hot and cold sandwiches. If you are a wine sipping food snob, this place probably isn’t for you. If you do like a good, regular American type of fare, they give the place a try.
Our food was very good and served nice and hot by the owner. We saw plenty of other dishes being served and all of it looked very good. Portions are plentiful, but not gigantic. Prices are pretty good. The place was full of happy eaters.
We’ll be stopping here again when we get to Tillamook.

It’s two step below Motel 6!!! A real dump. It still has the old tube tv. The furniture looks like it’s from the 70s. However, the price is outrageous. We paid $ 110/​night. I know that it was during the Dairy Parade but this is highway robbery.
I notice that folks seem to enjoy the café, but I was so burned out by the hotel rate for what you get that I didn’t want to eat at the café.

My very favorite place to eat breakfast.

We were travelling up the coast highway to Washington, and got tired around Tillamook, this was the first place we saw. HUGE MISTAKE to stay here, I would never recommend this place to anybody. The room was 98.00 total, no breakfast, but we were invited to eat there in the morning (at full price). No coffee maker in the room, but there was a large empty 5 lb. can of coffee there, I guess so you could wake up in the AM and sniff to get in the mood for their restaraunt! No shampoo conditioner or whatever. The rug was stained like a CSI crime scene, and no Closed Caption on the TV. The room smelled musty, Blond panelling on the walls with too much matching blond furniture, the room seemed cluttered. Basically… this place is a 1950’s time warp place, and… trust me… the mattress felt original! Lumpiest and worst mattress I’ve ever experienced in a motel. My companion got the room, and immediately after seeing the room, I wanted to cancel it… that was BEFORE I tried the mattress! We went back in to complain and cancel, the owner assured us this room was great and inexpensive, she said the next closest motel… and we could see it almost… was 169. a nite. We drove down there and were told it was 1.00 more, a price I would have paid in a heartbeat for a decent nite’s sleep. Needless to say… we passed on breakfast do to the lying owner (s). We do not recommend this place under ANY CONDITIONS, not even ½ price! Be smart and keep driving…

I’m reviewing the motel, not the attached café. The room was roomy and well furnished, and in generally good condition, but not well lit. There were a few problems. The room had a musty smell, so we opened the windows for a while to air it out. The bathroom door would not close properly. Some of the electrical outlets need maintenance. At $ 87.69 for one night (tax included), it was not quite up to what I would expect.

Best breakfast I have had in a long time. Everything from scratch. Great mom and pop home cooking

Good home cooked style food good service. Good prices
