Pioneer Inn by the River

Pioneer Inn by the River

8/10 Good
"This was a comfortable stay at an affordable price with convenient access to Port Hardy. Suites have been nicely renovated and the hardwood floor in the main living area helps things feel polished and well taken care of. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. The building is old and would benefit from some larger ticket upgrades such as newer windows with improved soundproofing but overall it was a solid stay for the area."
