The Mission Inn was okay. Walls are thin, which made for a noisy evening. Earplugs recommended. Towels are threadbare. I was surprised by all the glowing reviews! It was an average stay at a typical motel. The beach is about 8 blocks away, so families should know that it’s not walkable with young kiddos. Lots of restaurants and grocery stores within a block or two which was super convenient.
