The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"I only gave this a 4 star. I have been there before when it was a 5. It is under new management and found it very strange that a resort (who charges a resort fee) was totally out of washcloths. They were kind and offered extra hand towels, but come on, Amazon is a day away for those folks who asked for one (like me)) would have been happy to just have one. So, a 4, but a fabulous place to say the least!!"

Thunderbird Lodge in Riverside

8/10 Good

"We got in late from a softball tournament and needed a place to shower and sleep for a few hours. The staff were friendly and helpful. The place was clean and felt safe. It’s a budget motel, no bells or whistles. Over time they probably can update the furniture or not."

"This was such a lovely home and the amenities offered were great! I came across many listings that charged extra for heating jacuzzi/spa or prohibited swimming after a certain time. I am so happy I found this one! I booked it for my sister and I since she was visiting out of town with her family. The kids all had a great time and absolutely loved the jacuzzi! The kitchen was very well equipped. Overall we had a great time here, and I do hope to find a reason to book again in the future!"
