  The rooms are nice but I didn't realize we were right under the flight path of the airport, it got pretty noisy. Also watch out where they put you... We got our room directly over the wedding and had to move our room. Why they would give us the room over the wedding reception if they had other options is beyond me, especially with two small children. Room service with cocktails was excellent, however.

  Nice hotel and rooms recently redone. Service is great and the restaurant is good as well. Unfortunately I all too often am put in an ADA room in this hotel. The lack of furniture in these rooms leaves to guest with a less than optimal room. That in conjunction with the automatic door that you have to stand there and wait for it to automatically and very slowly open and close every time you enter or exit the room becomes extremely frustrating. Not sure why but I get one of these rooms almost every other time that I stay!

  We were extremely pleased with the overall appearance of the facility. The room was very nicely furnished.
  There were plenty of towels and plenty of electric outlets. The food was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay at an Ayres facility when the opportunity arises.

  Wonderful atmosphere. I loved the outdoor fountain. The plants nearby attracted lots of humming birds. I also enjoyed the restaurant. Their hot chocolate and variety of cakes were delicious. The staff was also very attentive. However, I didn't like the pool. The pool was too cold and there were children throwing pizza crusts in the jacuzzi. As for the rooms, they were nicely taken care of and I felt comfortable sleeping there. And a benefit to this hotel is that anything you need is only 10 minutes away. There was plenty of stores and other restaurants nearby. Other than the children at the jacuzzi, it was a wonderful experience.

  I didn't travel around Costa Mesa/Newport Beach too much while I was staying at the Ayres, but from what I can tell nothing I needed was more than a 10 minute drive away. The Ayres also has a shuttle service that will take you too and from the airport, which was very helpful.
  
  The hotel itself is very nice. There is a gym and a gorgeous fountain area, plus a pool. There is also a complimentary cookie buffet in the evening and a coffee maker in my room - nice touches. The room was very spacious and came with the fluffiest pillows of all time, as well as a king bed, television, and sofa.

  The hotel was beautiful and charming. Two disappointing things were: 1. There is no hair dryer provided for the suites and 2. All of the pillows were very soft and flattened easily, offering both firm and soft pillows in the room would be a nice change (there were 4 pillows and all were soft).

  The entire staff were friendly and always helpful. The hotel was always clean. I was there for a one week workshop. I really enjoyed my time there, as a first time stay. I will definitely be back soon! I did give 5 star ratings on my trip advisor "boyboykatne". :)

  Location is convenient for restaurants and freeway access. The hotel is clean and service is good. It is very dated and old but it is still nice. The room was inexpensive and a great value.

  A beautiful property. Rooms are all newly remodeled, and very clean and comfortable. I was very surprised about the nice bar, great food, and good prices. Would definitely stay here again!

  Very clean room & a very comfortable bed! The staff is friendly & gave great advice about places to visit in the area. The free hotel shuttle brought to Newport Beach, which was a lovely bonus. The continental breakfast had good variety. The only complaint I could have is that the shower's water pressure was very low. Overall, a great stay!

  Our stay started with a negative experience but Lesley put in all the effort to turn it into a great one for my family of four! She listened to our concerns and was quick to resolve them. She has great customer service skills and is an asset to Ayres Hotels. The room was spacious and clean, jacuzzi style tub was awesome, front office staff was very helpful, and the breakfast buffet was delicious!

  Double queen room overlooking the courtyard. Thought it would be louder, but besides a few loud talkers at breakfast one morning, didn't really matter. Right by the airport, but in the room, noise wasn't too bad. The pool was nice during the day when the sun was shining down in, and nice at night, out of the breeze. Breakfast buffet was good, with scrambled eggs, tortillas, crispy bacon, french toast, cereal, and pastries. Big fluffy towels and comfortable beds made the rooms cozy. Front desk staff was helpful, and rooms were always cleaned by mid-afternoon.

  Nice hotel. Very clean. We chose it for location four our daughters wedding in Newport Harbor. A group of us stayed here. I did not require any particular service, but other people in our party did and got excellent and quick service. We ate both dinner and breakfast in the restaurant due to convience. Again, the service really good, the food average and a bit pricey. I think that if you are staying for more than one night, breakfast should be included.

  Is rustic the right word to describe this hotels interior design? Very nice. Large rooms. The second floor of the main building overlooks the lobby. Located right next to the gas station AND a 7 eleven. Right next to the freeway. No need to leave the hotel to get food because the restaurant woke up my taste buds every time. From their salads to their seafood bisque. Some of the best hotel food I've had. Staff was nice as well... But the FOOD! Haha

  This hotel is pretty nice. The rooms were clean, the bed was comfortable. The food at their restaurant was only passable and very expensive. However, it is located within walking distance of quite a few restaurants and a couple of gas stations, so there are a lot of options. We got some recommendations from the front desk staff and they were very helpful and friendly. The local Chinese place was lovely and the Peruvian place was also decent.

  Love this hotel. Very nice staff. Restaurant on site has good breakfasts and is great for lunch and dinner too. The serving staff is wonderful and very personable and has wonderful suggestions for menu. Felt very welcomed on arrival. We have stayed here several times a year for several years. It's a great location for going to Disneyland, to Balboa...

  Stayed here over spring break with my wife and two kids, we had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful, from the music playing in every room, to the walk-in shower, everything was top notch. Roya was very attentive and great to work with. We spent most days at the beach. Took walks to the candy shop and nearby restaurants. The kids loved ending the day in the hot tub. It was a week we keep thinking back to. It was heaven!

  We checked into the hotel very late and the staff was really helpful. The next morning on the way to breakfast we pasted a very scenic pool, spa, and inside courtyard. The restaurant staff was very polite and made sure that we were well taken care of, Breakfast was delightful! We stayed two nights and I plan on coming back.

  Well situated and clearly an overall excellent value (always a good clue to see flying crews choose a hotel...). I travel almost every other week for work....This hotel has a very helpful and super professional front desk staff, they make you feel safe and taken care of. The rooms were very clean, great housekeeping as well. Overall it feels more like a four star hotel. I had a minor issue to solve that was immediately taken care by Vincent, Beatriz and Karina. Good professionals make a good hotel.
