The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is going through renovations and is not yet in top shape. The grounds, fountains, and lobby areas are looking OK but rooms need updating.

We were disappointed. Normally you would find a coffee pot in the room, there was none. The Wi-fi didn't work! They did offer another room, but there was not help if we wanted to move. All they had was one clerk on duty. There were stains in the cieling used tissue under the bed. The breakfast was very good, but not worth the price. They had even removed […] the heat lamp from the bathroom to conserve electricity. The towels wer thin, evidence of age. Overall , it does not deserve a 3 star rating. Read more

Very quiet. Grounds were very dark (we got in late) and we did not have a coffee maker in our room to make coffee in the AM. There was nobody at the front desk and we got up early and got back on the road. I will probably stay there again.

Our room was sooo hot we had to sit on the air conditioner just to try to stay cool. PLENTY of hot water but no cool water.

The initial greeting was fine. Staff was mixed. One girl doing personal stuff on the computer and check-in clerk was nice. The morning staff was rude and unhelpful. General upkeep was really bad. Exterior (from the front) was pleasing, and the courtyard was beautiful. However, the other exterior areas were not maintained and shabby including peeling […] paint and broken tiles. The room was horrid. Mold and goo in the bathroom / tub, un-swept, dirty floors, bed nearly too high to climb into (we are in our late seventies), no coffee or cups, Generally, the room was not clean and the moldiness of the bathtub made it impossible to enjoy a shower. Most disappointing was the service from the morning staff. When it was reported that the coffee service had not been refilled, and there were no cups, she got rude and belligerent and eventually sent Housekeeping with cups. After several attempts, we eventually got enough coffee for one cup. We had planned to return here on our way back home, but have cancelled our reservation. From reading the positive reviews, I can only wonder. Perhaps if we had not pre-paid, or had not been elderly, we might have received a nicer accommodation. Read more

The room was very nice, and the overall facility was very impressive, especially given that it is located pretty much in the middle of nowhere. The front desk staff were very pleasant in all my interactions with them, and the room was comfortable, clean, and a good value.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Staff were very helpful. Room was spacious & plenty of hot water.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Only one cup coffee for two guest; 3 skimpy bath towels, one wash cloth and one face cloth for two guests. At least one check-in person was clueless. Breakfast good. No plug in tub. Pool nice. Location good. Price seemed high by comparison with its condition and service.

We are an older couple who enjoy mid-week get-aways. We enjoy quiet well maintained places with things to do in nature close by. Hotel Mission de Oro fit the bill perfectly and we stayed 4 nights.. We were upgraded to Rm. 234 which had the view of the beautiful fountains of the central courtyard and a nice balcony to lounge on. If you had a room with […] the parking lot view and no balcony, I do not think your time would be as pleasant. Clearly, this hotel was someone's vision of a centrally located place for meetings and events. That vision seems to have failed, leaving a beautiful, if a bit worn, place being maintained by minimal staff. The towels were not the big fluffy kind; but the free breakfast, served between 6:30 and 10 am, featured warm waffles and was quite adequate. There was no swimming pool, so probably not a great place if you are a family looking to cool off in a pool in the hot central valley. I should mention that this hotel is located in the tiny village/truck stop of Santa Nella, which means there is lots of fast food at hand. We had a very good Mexican meal at Antojito's across the street one night. Some of the things we discovered to do were the San Luis Reservoir visitor's center where they have excellent displays and videos about the water system in California; the O'Neill Forebay where you can see many lovely birds enjoying the water; and the Los Banos Wildlife Area.

We felt like we had stepped off the old interstate highway-back in time; to slower, grander times. The expansive grounds were restored with a large water feature with spouting water. This hotel is huge-built to be the only hotel for miles. It was fun-our room was nicely repainted, flat screen TV, original 1950's tile in the bath-keeping with the theme. […] Although the rug was worn-it fit in perfectly with the room. We loved this old landmark-and will stay again. The only draw back was the light continental breakfast. Read more

The rooms had a lot of space and the beds were comfortable but the only things that needed to change and upgrade is the phone, the frige and the air conditioning. Overall the experience at the hotel was good.

The property is a wonderful piece of land. The hotel is old and worn out. The pool looked great. (we didn't use it) The 'free breakfast' was not worth walking across the square. Other hotels in the area (we do this trip often and have stayed at the Holiday Inn and Best Western) have markedly better free breakfasts, expecially the HI. I feel bad about […] the hotel as it has such potential. The only other people there were truck drivers. Read more

Even though I gave the desk clerk my confirmation number it still took her 25-30 minutes to get us checked in. There was some kind of problem but what it was I don't know. And I was the only guest checking in at the time. The room was fine and decently clean. We were told by the front desk that they had a nice continental breakfast there served between […] 6-10 am. I got there at 7:45 am and they were all out of food any they didn't know if there would be any more forthcoming. I then went to the front desk to request some extra towels. Told that they didn't have any at the desk but to look for housekeeping. I looked for a housekeeper but could not find one so never received any extra towels. The quality of service was lousy and I would never stay there again. Read more

Fixtures dangling from the ceiling, air conditioning in need of a giant muffler, bathroom needed to have components in the tank replaced before it worked, etc. ctc. Stay away!

Genuine Expedia guest review

The outside of the hotel is beautiful, and as far as I could tell, very well maintained. The location was perfect off of the 5 freeway and made for a convenient stop. The room was clean, though minimally kept up. For a one night stop over, it was satisfactory.

Upon arrival the clerk informed me that the fax was broken and that the only way to access my reservation was to call Expedia directly. During the phone conversation with Expedia, the clerk asked for the credit card information and repeated my card number and expiration date aloud for all in the lobby to hear. In the meantime, my daughter went to the […] restroom and informed me that there was no soap in the dispenser. Finally, the clerk handed over our room keys and after a few seconds I had to ask her what our room number was (as if I could read her mind). Initially the room looked clean albeit dated, but later that evening my daughter spotted two small yellow stains on the top sheets. The next day we went to check out the free continental breakfast around 9am. The tables were dirty, there was no juice, cereal bowls, syrup for waffles, or spreads for the bagels. No one was in sight in the dining room or kitchen. My daughter helped herself to a coffee cup of cereal. I ate a waffle and walked behind the counter and found syrup. At almost the end of the meal, an employee walked in and barely glanced at us. She walked to the kitchen and did not bother to ask about replenishing any of the breakfast items. Also need to mention that the place does have a beautiful courtyard setting, but it does appear neglected overall and the creepiness about how desolate it feels is true. So many empty rooms...I'm happy that my daughter did not go for ice never to return again... Read more

the hotel was fine if you need to make a stop on I5. It appears that they are not in very good financial shape, although the rooms appear to have been recently renovated. The staff was nice.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The grounds were kept up but the rooms were very old and a bit run-down. The air conditioner is below the window and the curtains blow open any time the fan is on because there is no way to redirect the air - it only blows upward so the cool air goes into the curtains blowing them open. We skipped the breakfast because it was weak.

Overall, I guess the hotel was o.k. When we arrived shortly after midnight, they could not find our reservation and after contacting hotels.com ourselves, we were able to straighten it out. The first room they gave us, had not been done up so back to the desk we had to go and they gave us a new room. Breakfast was supposed to be from 6-10 in the morning […] but when we arrived at 9:30, the door was locked because there was no more food. We dealt with two different desk clerks, the first one when we arrived was just getting ready to go off shift and couldn't really be bothered helping us. The second, a young man, was very helpful and apologetic about all the problems and offered us a refund of part of our rate. We will see if hotels.com honors that refund. So far, nothing. Overall, it was a disappointing experience. Read more

Bed and sheets were incredibly comfortable. Grounds and fountains were beautiful. Continental breakfast was good. Great morning coffee rivaled starbucks.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It was exactly what other reviews said - like a ghost town. A really interesting hotel that somewhat resembles a real Calif. mission - but also something eerie about the place. It was a huge hotel with interesting decor - but maybe 10 people staying in the whole place when we were there. Nice courtyard area in the middle with beautiful fountains. Pool […] was nice too - though too close to the freeway. Anyway, it was interesting to be there, and stay there once, but not really a place I'd want to frequent very often. Read more

Sorry, brown water coming out of bath first time we opened the valves. Someone broke into our truck, broke out passenger window and stole gps. Good people, clean place but not happy campers.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We planned our stay based on the advice of a friend. The room was nice, with a large bathroom. the hotel bar was outstanding. the restaurant had great food at a reasonable price. I must say that even the coffee was better than average. both my wife and I were quite pleased with the whole experience.
