The hotel sits on a hill with a view of a lake. It is a beautiful building. Breakfast was excellent! The room was spacious and comfortable with a couch and table in addition to the food area and a nice king size bed.

I recently stayed at the Ayres Hotel and had a fantastic experience! This is a very family-friendly and safe environment, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The hotel offers great amenities, and I especially loved the convenience of having a restaurant within the hotel. The front desk staff was incredibly welcoming and accommodating—especially Donna, who went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. She truly made our stay extra special with her kindness and professionalism. The only downside was the gentleman working in the restaurant—he wasn’t the friendliest, which was a bit disappointing. However, everyone else at the hotel more than made up for it with their warmth and hospitality. Overall, I highly recommend the Ayres Hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. We will definitely be returning!
