Our King Junior Suite was a nice room, it has a sitting area with a sofa, a jacuzzi tub/shower, and a bar area. The restaurant at the hotel has a nice happy hour until 6:30 (we were there on a Friday) with some food selections and drink specials. We also ate there for breakfast, we had an omelette and Ayres Country breakfast (I got the fruit instead of potatoes and it was really fresh and delicious) and both dishes were very good. I want to comment on how efficient, friendly, and quick the wait staff are as well. The hotel lobby was under construction, but we stayed in the other building so it didn’t bother us. You do hear the airplanes taking off starting at 7am, but it wasn’t too bad in our room.

It was a pleasant property in a convenient location for our needs. The hotel was clean, staff were accommodating, room was adequate and comfortable . If you are spending time in the Costa Mesa, Newport vicinity it was a short drive to highlights and restaurants.

The hotel room is clean and comfortable. Air conditioner worked fabulous. The only downside was when the airplanes went overhead. I would definitely book this place again.

Very comfortable. Good Service

Convenient to the Orange County airport, the Ayres was everything we needed for a quick trip to So Cal. Beds were comfortable. Pool and hot tub were very nice. Service desk was very kind and helped me find a lost bathing suit that was dropped on my way to my room. Only suggestion I have would be more hooks to hang towels, ect. especially if we are trying to conserve water by not having the room cleaned everyday.

Great experience. Staff was super friendly. Breakfast was amazing. Walking distance to gas stations, Chipotle, Taco Bell in case you need something quick or don’t want to order from the restaurant. Plank flooring in the rooms which is great since we did go to the beach. Was about 30-40 mins away from Pacific coast highway but Ubers were easily to get.

Everything looked upscale and proper. However, the room was drenched in artificial air freshener toxic smell. It was so hard to breath in the room. We opened the windows and everything. It was so bad. Even our clothes inside the suitcase still smelled days after we returned home.
