Shortest stay at a hotel ever! The carpet was badly stained; the room had an odour that hit you immediately. Going into the bedroom it became obvious that it was full of mold and mildew. We left immediately. On the positive side when we told the desk clerk we couldn't stay; she very kindly refunded our full cost. Sleeping in... more

It's old and basic, but our room was clean, and the bathroom was fine. Not very big: not much room available to organize luggage. Free Internet access on one computer in the office. Washing machines were available. No food available. Pricey ($120 total) but it's summer on a tourist path. I have stayed in other motels in the town of... more

Came across this place on the net and was at a reasonable price. Stayed there for two nights. The place looks a bit outdated from the outside. The rooms aren't that much better. There was a separate room with a double bed and a single bed. Not sure why there was two beds in there (we only asked for a... more

This property would be acceptable if it was just tired. It is a $40/night old motel charging high rates because most of the customers are one night stands. The only thing going for it was that it was clean. Rooms are poorly lit, shabbily decorated, very noisy. They would have let me out of my reservation(i think) if i could... more

Like most others, the only reason we stayed at the Pioneer Inn was to catch the ferry to Prince Rupert. That said, there is no reason not to stay in this hotel as it is the closest you can get to the ferry (and that's important at 04.30 in the morning!) and there is quite a nice nature reserve directly... more

I stayed there a couple years back and it was filthy, but I went back because the location is great. When I went in it was clean and the food is delicious. The staff isn't great at english but very pleasant and friendly. The new manager seems to be taking charge and doing a lot of renovations. It's definitely clean... more

Stayed here in July 2005 as it said it was the nearest hotel to the ferry terminal (if you are catching the Inside Passage ferry to Prince Rupert and beyond). Was about a 10/15 minute drive so somewhere else may have been closer. Basically it was absolutely filthy. We walked round trying not to touch anything and even put our... more

Stay away! One big nightmare. Open the room means to awake the rodents and seeing them running through the room. the room was dirty, the fridge didn't smell, but stink after rotten fish, staff was rude and impolite. Moved to another hotel. more

Auf unserem 3Wochen Trip durch West-Kanada war dieses Hotel die schrecklichste Erfahrung. Das Zimmer stank ekelerregend, die Möbel waren klebrig,... more
