4/10 Fair

When looking at the pictures of the pioneer motel it shows pictures of log cabins with beautiful views but instead you get crammed between gas stations and a heavily traveled street. First room they picked for us had a musty smell (it was a self check in). When I was able to get service they offered me a free upgrade to a larger room, we had just travelled 17 hours and were willing to accept anything at that time. After staying the 4 nights I was billed for, we checked out.

I arrived after a long day of driving to a cookie at check in and the most comfortable bed and pillows! The room was incredibly clean, sheets smelled wonderful, and there was a perfect little kitchenette. The location is very convenient but there was some road noise. Overall, so much attention to detail that was so appreciated after a week of travel.

It was perfect for what we needed! The staff was very nice, they offered us sparkling water and cookies. We were able to park our trailer there. The rooms were out dated but clean and comfortable.
