Desk Staff is beyond great. Only advice for them to pay attention to detail. Second visit. Same room 3 months apart. Missing bathroom fan conver. Cracked electrical inlet cover in entry. Seems small but i belive this could be a destination hotel because of location. The restaurant that is next door is also amazing. I was kinda caught off guard by how awesome this place was. BEST STAFF EVER. Food amazing. All said I give a %100 percent score.

Great place, dumb move on my part...

Everything was surprisingly very good. One suggestion, if your wife has had double knee surgery in the past year and is also suffering from a pulled hamstring and you have a sciatica thing going on, make sure to specify ground floor. Very stupid of me...

There were drunk loud people in the room right under us. They kept us awake, we asked them nicely to be quiet. But it didn't change, so I called down to the front desk. She said she was familiar with the guys in the room and would talk to them. She did and they were quiet. The walls are very thin in the rooms, you can hear what everyone on each side of you is doing and saying. It needs insulation. It would be nice if they served a continental breakfast. Having said all that, I would definitely stay there again. The rooms were big, clean and great views. The staff was wonderful and amazing. They deserve a raise!!!!! or bonus!!!!!!

Just okay but cheap

Our rooms had a slight cigarette smell and the sheets and blankets looked really worn. Carpet isn’t the cleanest either. But overall the staff was friendly and the price was good that we could deal with it for a night. Really hope they start updating the sheets and blankets it’s gross to think of what’s on them....

They care about their guests

I accidentally book the room for a day earlier than my employee's arrival. We received a call the evening we were supposed to arrive so that they would know what time we would be there so they could provide us "after hour arrival instructions." Embarrassed and disappointed that I was paying for a hotel stay I wasn't going to use, I told the lady on the phone that I somehow booked it for the wrong night. Without hesitation, and without my even asking about the possibility, the lady said, "No problem, I will just move your reservation to tomorrow night." I was stunned. They obviously care about their guests at Pioneer Inn & Suites!

Disliked: Amenities
The room was clean but my request for a room away from the main road was ignored. The room smelled of Lysol and when I opened the sliding glass door to the balcony I encountered a cloud of cigarette smoke from the guest downstairs sitting on his balcony smoking non- stop. WiFi works great until 8am when everyone in the hotel logs in and it virtually stops working. Warning: there is NO cell service here (at least not for Verizon).
