What Is Wrong With My Sunpatiens?

I brought my sunpatiens into the house about 3 weeks ago before any signs of frost. The leaves appear to be discolored and it appears to have some type of insect problem. I have attached a couple of photos, I am hoping that you may be able to help me with a solution to my problem please?

The first photo looks like spider mite damage but the second photo looks more like mealy bugs (unless it is spider mite webbing). To treat both you can spray with Neem oil.
