We enjoyed the atmosphere. My family enjoyed the stay overall. We ate at Las Campanas but the service was slow. Luckily we weren’t in a hurry. We attended a show at the Fox Theater nearby. We returned to the hotel at 10pm and went to the Presidential Lounge for a drink. The hotel desk told us the lounge closed at 11pm. It was 10:20 pm we asked to order a few drinks and the waitress told us “we close at 11and we just did last call.” 40 minutes BEFORE closing we were denied service.

I was shocked so to speak. I grew up in Southern California and liked to go to the Mission Inn to see the Christmas lights and this year decided to stay over while meeting friends for dinner. Dinner was a delight! However when I return to my room the first thing I encountered was an overflowing toilet. I called twice. Gentleman finally came and fixed it. Then I noticed there was mold in the toilet. And then I noticed there was a bathtub ring of dirt like the bathtub had not been cleaned since it was used by someone at some time. Very disappointing! I reported my experiences during checkout and got a bland response.

Ridiculously noisy.
Extremely noisy. Our room overlooked the pedestrian mall and there was a guy playing the drums and loud music from the time we checked in at 5pm until 10:30, when the police showed up and shut him down. I had to call your security office twice about it and the police finally did show up. It was ridiculous that that is allowed to be played right where dozens of your rooms have customers. When I went to take a shower this morning, it didn’t work. When I pulled the nozzle up to have the water come out of the shower head, nothing happened. The bed and pillows, though, were very comfy.

Wish I could have loved it!
I wanted to love the stay because of the timing of the light festival and it being my birthday weekend but just couldn’t. The room has a dirty sock left from guest prior to us. The carpet had debris/ crumbs on it. The room did not come with wash clothes and I called the front desk twice to get one and never did. The bed linen had black hair in it. I’m a blonde so I know it wasn’t mine from our luggage. Just disappointed…

The Mission Inn itself is a beautiful, one of a kind property. Coming at Christmas in the middle of the Festival of Lights is magical. The lobby, the exterior, wow, just wow, an unexpected suprise. The rooms though are dated , the internet very spotty and the housecleaning was OK, not great. So, if not for the magic of the holiday event i would not stay there .
