We have stayed at Mission Inn a few times when visiting Santa Cruz and the rooms are always clean, Justin and Ben were friendly and helpful, and the grounds are well kept. We will consider Mission Inn next time we visit Santa Cruz.

Stayed one night here while visiting friends. Not impressed, a little rough around the edges. Pretty noisy and showerhead was horrible! Stay somewhere else.

Check in was very pleasant. The lady checking us in gave us a thorough briefing and assured us someone would be there 24 hours a day—something that is rarer and rarer these days. The room is clean and comfortable. Plenty of counter space in the bathroom. One weird quirk is the rollout desk (I’ll provide a picture) that is in the narrow passageway between the entrance and bathroom area and the main part of the room. The Wifi was mostly out of commission. It worked fine the first evening we were there. The second day, it kept dropping my MacBook’s connection. The front desk said to call an outfit called Macrotech. They got me connected but it dropped again as soon as I hung up. I called again and again they did something remotely that got me connected but that only lasted about 10 minutes. I wouldn’t count on Wifi here. The air conditioner and bathroom fan are both very loud. So turn on the AC early and get the room very cold so you can turn it off and maybe sleep through the night.

I thought the quality was not up to par with the price. Outside was pretty dirty and unappealing, staff was unfriendly and room, although clean and a good size, smelled like a smoker’s room. I should have asked to switch but was just too tired from long drive. I opened the windows and turned air on and went to sleep. Breakfast was decent but probably would not stay again.

The beds were very comfortable, the shower had good water pressure and room we had for three nights was very quiet. Short drive to all of the good spots to visit in Santa Cruz. We would definitely stay here again.
