Pembina River Inn

What guests think

Pembina River Inn is a budget, roadside motel where many guests praise clean rooms, friendly staff, and good value, while others note dated, rustic facilities, thin walls and train or highway noise, and occasional maintenance or supply lapses.

Cleanliness feedback ranges from spotless rooms to serious issues like stained bedding, flies, and dirty fixtures. Rooms are often spacious with a cabin feel and workable Wi‑Fi, but comfort and upkeep vary, with hard or older beds, warm-only cold water, and occasional plumbing or shower problems. Location is convenient near the highway with restaurants or diners next door, while in‑room coffee and towel quality are basic. Expect a simple, good-value stopover with friendly service and variable rooms.

This motel is so cool! The vintage rooms are so clean and charming. We stayed in a room with 2 beds and a kitchenette. The room feels like a cottage from back in the day. I hope the rooms stay this way and don’t become sterile and boring like modern motel rooms. I’d go back! Pretty country view out tge back window, room stayed very dark and there are diners next door. We got in late at night and the staff was very friendly

I had the executive suite for 3 nights. Large room, high ceilings, couch, small dining table, and kitchenette. Unfortunately, the bed was uncomfortable, seems old, and uncomfortable pillows (too thick and hard). Train, highway, and plumbing noice throughout the night. No cold water, runs warm. Lots of dead flies on floor and window sill.

Ben linens were disgusting, pillows were yellow and pubic hairs were all over the sheets, clearly hadn’t been washed in a long time. No staff was present when we came back to the room after initially checking in, no one to air any grievances to, so we left the key and walked out and returned the hour and a half drive back to the City at the end of a very laborious day. Even more ridiculous, this company has refused to refund my initial night’s hotel stay. The reservation was 2 nights and was given back only the second night, with no good reason, effectively stealing from me and now forcing me to go to Visa to resolve this. So much for being a “VIP” member…..what an absolute joke.

The vintage motor court lodge has excellent internet, comfy beds & lots of hot water. It's located right next door to a good restaurant The room was clad in gorgeous molding type vertical tongue and groove wood. The tall vaulted ceiling was also wood, creating an inviting space. Everything was spotless. The only thing I didn't like was the in room coffee: the two individual coffee servings were meant for a one cup brewer - not a 12 cup machine! They did provide filters, but I didn't bring coffee... Overall? I'd stay there again.

The room was very clean! The only issue I had was with the toilet not flushing properly but that was solved with a couple of uses of a plunger. The room had a log cabin feel and was huge. I loved the frosted windows in the couch area. The bed was a bit harder than I am used to but still reasonably comfortable. Check in was seemless as I booked through Expedia. Would stay again

Listen, it’s not the ritz but for a budget inn on the side of the highway it’s really cute and has everything you need. My friend and I stayed here during The Womp music festival and would stay here again. The staff were super nice as well.

Nothing was replaced after 1st night stay....meaning coffee items, etc. There was a hand written message on the wall by the door "not to push the button in on the knob as it locks when you close it"...not true and really ?? Having said this the price was retro 1990\'s and the dudes in the office were great. I would stay there again for the price...knowing what to expect.
