When we checked-in the hotel at 4:00 pm, I asked for dinner reservations at a hotel restaurant that also served vegetarian food. The Clerk happily made a 5:30 pm dinner reservation supposedly accommodating our request. However, when we arrived at the Mission Inn Restaurant for our reservation - they were not serving dinner meals but it was a ridiculous buffet line jammed with people elbow to elbow and no vegetarian meals! We were directed to another hotel restaurant that did serve a selection of vegetarian food. The Bella Restuarant said it would be a 30 minute wait with 5 reservations in front of us despite me explaining the hotel screwup. Over an hour later, we gave up to walk down the street to another restaurant. Then, getting to our room about 7:30 pm, the nasty Festival of Lights street band noise was directly below our third floor room. It was terrible! It forced us to leave the Mission Inn Hotel very upset at 9:45 pm.

So my best friend flew in from Savannah for a best friend's relaxation birthday weekend since I live closeby, we decided to stay at the Mission Inn for the proximity to Glen Ivy Spa and the Ontario airport. We had ate lunch at the mission in restaurant for lunch Friday and the service was amazing. They accidentally put ketchup on my friends chicken sandwich but the staff fixed it right away. We went to the steak house and the staff was soo delightful and food was perfect. The flan and chocolate cake was Devine. I want to bring my husband back for that!!! We also went to Bellas to dance the night away. Saturday we planned to spend the whole day at the Hot Springs, but my friend who is very sensitive thinks she had a reaction to the well water or the actual springs so we came back to the hotel so she could rest and feel better. Her tongue was numb and stomach unsettled. That was a bummer so we decided to have brunch and then enjoy kellys spa. All the staff was gold standard service. Patty and Latoya in the spa deserve a metal for their friendliness and knowledge. The valet staff helpful and welcoming. Excited to bring my husband.

As a frequent guest, I have always loved the Mission Inn. However, this time seemed different. My room was not up to the usual clean standard upon arrival. To be fair, staff did quickly return and correct the deficiency. Check in was delayed due to my room not being ready yet, but to also be fair, staff pushed back my check out time to compensate. The common areas in the hotels hallways were hot as if the air conditioner was not working. Many areas showed signs of deferred maintenance. I.e...broken roof tiles, caulk that needed to be relaid, cobwebs in the corners of the ceiling and other small maintenance items. This is unusual for the Mission Inn. I hope to see them return to their usual high standard of resort quality.
