Nice little Inn. Not modern, but vibes of a home, and well loved. Off the beaten (and worn) path down at the Spit, which suited us fine. Great pizza down the street, and a fine arts gallery next door. Good spot, good stop. If we ever make it back, you’ll find us here.

Running refrigerator OR ASMR
Cute room, King size bed is comprized of two mattresses put together so sleeping in the middle can get you sore after a bit. There is a small refrigerator that also turns on every 15 minutes that is located right next to the bed so it might wake you up at night like it did me. Good space for parking. Overall the room was a great location and gave us a roof over our head after a long day of fishing.

The overall appearance and comfort was exceptional. Only thing I didn’t like was that, with my schedule, I couldn’t stay another few days.

Great place!
The Pioneer Inn was a perfect place to rest my family’s heads for the evening after a great couple of days in Homer. There were three beds, a kitchen, and a little tv sitting area. The view from the second floor room was amazing.

Older building, but plenty of space for a small family to sleep on vacation for a reasonable price in today’s economy. Enjoyed the self check-in.

Five stars are not enough
This was a true hidden gem. I've been on the road traveling for close to four months, and this is hands-down my favorite landing spot. It is family-owned, and Lila goes above and beyond to accommodate and make a person feel welcome. A more genuine and upbeat person you will not likely meet. The rooms have a multitude of little touches that make it more like "home" than just another hotel -- from the soft, quality toilet paper (!) to the plush bath towels, the container of coffee and blackout curtains, the cleanliness, and I will mention once again, how NICE and helpful the owner is! Also, the location is perfect, and quiet. Best of all, the owners keep the rates reasonable when they could easily rate-gouge, given how nice this Inn is.
