How to stain hardwood floors

Our house is over 20 years old and has narrow plank natural maple hardwood floors. We would like to update our house some by refinishing the floors so they don’t have such a “yellow” look to the wood. (Someone recommended we rip up all the wood flooring. We can’t afford to do that.) Is it possible to stain maple a different color? I’ve read maple doesn’t take stain well, but would like to go for a totally different look. Any recommendations?
