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.

My room was very nice and clean, spacious, great bed,restaurant on site is a plus, but guest were super noisy, not respectful, and not at all nice or friendly. Staff was super nice and helpful. It s right on the high way and the traffic was noisy. The hotel itself is great but the neighborhood not so good.

We loved our stay at this Ayres hotel! It was so charming! We loved our room and the pool and the food at the restaurant and the beautiful courtyard with the fountain that gave us Europe/Italy vibes and our room and the filtered water dispenser and all the model ships and pictures in the hallways and the staff. It was such a fun, memorable, beautiful experience for us!

The staff was helpful and friendly, and the hotel itself is very clean, but the heavy/perfumy smell of air freshener and deodorizers is just too much. Same with the room - stop with trying to cover up old odors that have set in. Entire building(s) and rooms are in need of upgrading - replace carpet, drapes and wall paper.
