Stayed here 4 years ago and it was pretty good, cheap and no charge for the dog, so this year we booked online for $49 a night. The hotel said it was pet-friendly on the web site and no where on the site could I find a pet cleaning fee of $75. Checked in and told about the fee, which I thought at first was refundable if your dog didn’t make a mess, but after all paid up, was told it’s non-refundable. Also no fridge, microwave, coffee maker or hair dryer in the room. No free coffee in reception either. Very limited cable channels (maybe a dozen). Exterior of the hotel and ****** is very run down. Also you can’t get to the full river walk without leaving the property via the front parking lot and then walking through the Edgewater ******. On the positive it was clean. Never will we stay here again!
This was the second hotel I stayed at during this visit and after my Tropicana experience, The Pioneer is the only place I'll stay at while visiting Laughlin. It was cheaper, closer to everything, cleaner, more up to date, and just an overall better experience.
