Run down no frills hotel/motel. We used it to sleep for One night after attending a wedding. The walls were thin and lots of noise from large group of teenager boys staying above us. While everything was some what clean the place is really run down. I fell in the parking area and my knees were black from all the oil and loose tar/gravel when I fell. Other that the Mission Inn there are not a lot of hotels in the area if this hotel was renovated you could charge double what we paid and make it a better experience.

Arrived in the evening and was greeted by Destiny. She got us all squared away quickly and helped us get set up with late checkout. She was super friendly, and helpful with us during our stay. When it's time for us to head back, we'll look this spot up.

Our family reserved three rooms this past Saturday night. All three rooms had a high pitched noise that kept coming on and off all night and day. It was not the AC unit we could not figure out where this high-pitched noise was coming from. It was very irritating. Also, there’s not much soundproofing. We could hear, baby screaming, and crying and children running up and down the halls early in the morning!
