We liked that the property was clean and quiet. The room was nice and updated. We didn't like that not all the key staff spoke English. We also would have preferred that the breakfast room be open until 11:00am, instead of just 10:00am.

The only drawback is that there is no elevator. If you cannot handle stairs, you must specify that you want a ground floor room when making your reservation. The breakfast room is on the second floor. If you want breakfast and cannot do one flight of stairs, well....

The women at the front desk were extremely friendly even though I showed up very late in the evening and had to call them to check me in. Unlike most free hotel breakfasts this one actually tasted really good and had a good selection of options. I will definitely stay here again if I ever stay in Santa Cruz again..

I always have a nice stay at Mission Inn. Great people, clean rooms, comfortable beds. Pleasant courtyard and patio areas. Nice variety at the Continental Breakfast. I think it's a bit more than Continental, actually. Well worth it.

Amazing team and great value

The team running this hotel is wonderful. My daughter left her favorite, very treasured stuffed animal (a little pink bird) behind on our most recent stay. I called the front desk, and within 5 minutes they'd found it and sorted out how to get it back to us. Then they went above and beyond. When the bird arrived, it was packaged with a letter describing her adventures on her additional, unexpected vacation days at the hotel, along with photos showing the bird tucked into bed, answering the phone, and posed in various spots around the hotel. It was such a kind and caring gesture, and underlined how the folks at the Mission Inn think about and treat their guests. The hotel offers great value, has a terrific location, and a better breakfast than we got at a fairly pricey cafe in Paso Robles. We'll definitely be back!
