At first I thought I had made a mistake, because from a distance, it looks like an old run down motel. But a closer look and I saw that it had been totally renovated. It was a cute old style motel. The rooms were spotless, with new carpet and beds. The host was so sweet and welcoming! For a fourth of the price of the other motel we had stayed in! I felt at home.

An older motel that has been wonderfully updated. The room was comfortable and clean. The bathroom was a little small but well renovated. There was a small kitchen area that was perfect for light meals and snacks. The table space was only for 2 people but wasn't a problem for the 3 of us as we were only there overnight anyway. There was a parking space right outside the door of each room

This was a good no-frills motel. It was clean and the beds were comfortable. The manager was very nice and she allowed a late check-out without any hassle. The location within Palmer was good - close to shops and restaurants.
We had expected there to be a stovetop because the word "kitchenette" was used in the description. It only has a microwave and refrigerator - all other places we've stayed at only mentioned kitchenette if they also had a stovetop. The description should be updated to remove that word as it can be misleading.

Great motel a block off the highway. Spacious room with a kitchen sink. Clean and comfortable. Parking right outside the door. Located in town, near stores and attractions. Attentive manager. Very nice stay at a very nice place.
There is road noise.

The Pioneer Motel is a very clean, comfortable and accommodating establishment. Due to late arrival (after midnight) we had only limited involvement with the friendly staff, and just when we thought we couldn’t be more satisfied with our experience - our room provided everything we could have needed from bar soap to coffee to kitchen utensils. The reasonable rates are the least outstanding benefit this facility offers. This facility really is a jewel.

It was very clean and plenty of room. Nice comfortable bathroom. Lots of privacy since I was in an end unit.
Some things that I thought were included were not. No dishes, ice maker or washer in room like advertised. The light didn’t work in the kitchen.

We really appreciated that they had dog friendly rooms. Also, they had a nice green mostly fenced, picnic area the kids could run around in.
The only challenge was that it was very hot in the room and took a long time for the one fan to get the temperature cool enough. Alaska homes truly are made to keep in the heat.

Room was clean, staff was friendly. After hours check in smooth. Cheap gas across the street and homemade ice cream across street also.
No sound deadening in walls. No A/c but fan supplied. Didn't need ac except for 2 nights in a 2 week stay.

Probably the best Motel I've stayed in in America. The place doesn't look like much from the outside, but the room was very comfortable, quality interior, clean, well equipped and felt homely, and as a bonus there are also convenience store right across the street.
Nothing really, can't fault, a lovely stay.

It was very easy to find and centrally located to the things we wanted to visit. It was very clean and all the necessities were provided.
The person next door to us was very loud and up at all hours. Not much you could do about that I guess. Lol It would have been nice to have another bedside table.
