Verified Reviews of Best Western Pioneer Inn & Suites
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "Worst hotel ever!"
Overall Score1.0/ 5
We arrived and waited for nearly 10 minutes before there was someone at the front desk. When we were checking in, we were warned strongly about a $250 cleaning charge if we smoked in the room. We got our key and could smell the aroma of marijuana as we made our way down the hallway. There was not an elevator so we had to lug our bags up a flight of stairs. The room was, to say the least, dated and dirty. It already reeked of smoke. The carpeting looked as though it had not been cleaned or shampooed in years. In short, it was kind of creepy. We spent our time for the next few minutes looking for another hotel. We left there within a half hour of arrival to stay somewhere else. Of course, when I stopped in the lobby to return the key cards, no one was there again. I dropped them off and left. DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL!
