Mission Inn

Mission Inn

10/10 Excellent
"This property is beautifully landscaped with very nice, clean rooms. It offers a free breakfast with many choices. If you have mobility issues, be aware there is no elevator and the breakfast room is on the second floor. It is not extremely close to the wharf or boardwalk, so plan to drive or Uber there unless you’re an avid walker. Staff was very friendly & responsive."

8/10 Good
"The computer booking system was down and we couldn’t check in, but the helpful desk person gave us a parking pass and we got something to eat while we waited for the system to come back online. The breakfast buffet was wonderful - bacon crispy, pancake machine a marvel of convenience. The whole property is very locked down (in a good way) from the denizens who linger on Ocean Blvd. The room was very clean."
