Nice Place to Stay in Santa Cruz

Disappointing hotel overall.
Location was great.
Room was stuffy, small, and bed was extremely lumpy and uncomfortable. Bathroom shower needs remodeling.

The room wasn’t bad for a one night stay but it definitely wasn’t worth the cost of over $300(all-in) for one night.
It’s a motel/inn so lower quality but probably is comparable to other inns in the area

Questions about Mission Inn

What time is check-in and check-out at Mission Inn?

Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Mission Inn allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Mission Inn?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Is breakfast included at Mission Inn?

Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.

Does Mission Inn have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Mission Inn have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

Can I check in late at Mission Inn?

The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.

How do I book Mission Inn?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
