The good parts like having a mini fridge and microwave and a large TV with comfortable beds is why I gave it 3 stars. It's a decent place that stay for an affordable price. The one other problem was cleanliness. I've attached a picture of the washcloth provided in our room, As you can see there is a false eyelash stuck on it. So it's hard for me to give more than 3 stars. I think 3 stars is fair.

If you're a light sleeper, I would definitely keep this in mind before booking here.

We chose this hotel because we have had positive experiences with Wyndham properties in the past…read more Unfortunately, this stay was one of the most disappointing hotel experiences we have had. Check-in was disorganized. The front-desk employee charged our credit card for the wrong room and told us not to worry because the charge would be removed within three to five business days. That was not an acceptable resolution. Our room had several problems: it smelled unpleasant, the air conditioner made a loud screeching noise throughout the night, and the refrigerator did not work. We were provided only one set of bath linens. When I called to request another set, we received two bath towels that appeared to have melted plastic on them. Equally disappointing was the service. When we contacted the office about these concerns, we were not treated courteously, and no one apologized for the errors. At checkout, no one asked about our stay or offered an opportunity to address the problems. I later contacted Wyndham and was told that, because this location is a franchise, there was nothing they could do. I am extremely disappointed by both the hotel's response and Wyndham's lack of support. This experience has caused me to reconsider staying at Wyndham properties in the future.

This place is VERY handicap friendly and This is possibly one of the best hotel experiences I have…read morehad in Orange County. And I have stayed in some upscale hotels. While the other upscale hotels were nice, this hotel was very classy. To begin with they are extremely handicapped friendly. They have double doors and those buttons you can push that automatically opens the doors for you if you're in a wheelchair they also have ADA rooms with these door openers and the pool has a elevator since it is at the bottom of the stairway to make Wheelchair access possible. I am seriously impressed by how ADA Friendly they are. The building was very charming. First thing I saw when I walked in was a big large grand fireplace and Stone floors and big Oriental vases and the place had an old world hotel feeling.. It is very charming and full of character. The rooms were extremely comfortable and have very nice classy furniture. The curtains were very nice. The bed was amazingly comfortable and clean. My only criticism was my first day there It did smell a little bit old like they could use a good spring cleaning , but the next day it didn't smell like that anymore. And their staff they are first class. While other hotels made me feel resented for requesting assistance, Ayres staff were very classy and beyond accommodating and they made me feel so welcome and they all generally had very good energy and attitudes. This whole experience felt like I was stepping into the grand Budapest hotel(the movie) just a little bit. That's what it made me think of. I also heard that the owner has breakfast there every morning. I especially want to recognize the staff and thank them for making the experience so welcoming and accommodating for me especially since I am in a wheelchair and i unfortunately am not treated so well in other places.

There were ants in my room this time, got all up inside my suitcase, which was unfortunate and annoying. Was only there for two nights so not too big of a deal. The courtyard is so fun and the food is good yet pricey of course. Chips, salsa and guac were about $19, but pretty yummy. Got the sea bass dish which was recommended by the server, I give it 4/5! Delish mashed potatoes and fish was good, maybe a little more salt needed for me on the dish overall. Happy with it though. Was about $24-$26. If you're visiting and an artsy person, I recommend stopping by the anti-mall just about 8 min drive nearby, pretty cute and a fun visit.

It is close enough to what you want and you can walk to a few great eateries. The check in was great as was check out. Our room was spacious and spotless. I always need more towels and they had them to be in minutes. The prices are fair. This is not a super luxury hotel and you are not paying for that. It is cute, with a great pool, places to walk to, super comfortable rooms and a very nice TV. It is near the Newport Harbor and there is a lot to do there. For the price this place is perfect. The staff is just the best. You want something they got you and they can help guide you to great places to eat. We will be back.

It's just a straight shot on 18th and within walking distance from the ocean on one side and the channel on the other. Tons of places to eat and drink, all within walking distance and beach cruiser to and from. We stayed in room 303 and had a lovely peekaboo to the ocean. The hotel staff was so kind and hospitable. Tasha at the front desk and the valet/concierge (Caleb) and others were so accommodating. The room was nice and clean, lots of details from the ground floor all the way up to the roof top! it's our hidden secret

The hotel…read morehas been beautifully renovated, and whoever designed these rooms didn't miss a single detail. From the coastal decor and thoughtful accents to the amenities, everything felt fresh, stylish, and well thought out. If you're planning a longer stay, the suite is perfect. Ours included a fully stocked kitchen and a separate bedroom with living space overlooking the ocean, making it feel more like a beach apartment than a hotel room. A special thank you to Tasha, the front desk manager, who was incredibly warm and welcoming and truly set the tone for our stay. She recommended The Lighthouse, just steps from the hotel overlooking the harbor, and it ended up being a great spot with good food and beautiful views. We travel often and have stayed at many of the surrounding hotels in the area, and Bay Shores Peninsula has done a fantastic job with its renovations. The location is excellent, the property is spotless, and we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Room has decent toiletries, hair dryer, robes, slippers, fridge, coffee maker. Several restaurants on site, Starbucks coffee, little market, etc. They also have their own fire pits. 4+ stars * Location: accross from the beach... so it is not quite ocean front although they do have non-obstructive view of the beach and Hungtington pier. It is a bit walk to Pacific City shopping. 4+ stars. * Motif: nice and wellkept grounds. Room is clean, basic decor. 4 stars for the overall, 2 stars for room noise! * Service: valet staff is friendly. Front desk is so so. Housekeeping staff is nice and friendly. 3 stars. Averaged to 4 stars. We are loyal Hyatt customers, explorist status on Hyatt membership. But we usually stayed at the Hilton (for better view). We booked 3 night ocean front room for a staycation directly via World of Hyatt. We got the farthest room of the resort. The bell desk delivered our luggage before we got there since it is quite a walk... so, if you have any issues with walking, might ask to have room closer to front desk. The guest room is decent size suite, clean, nothing special with sofa, desk. The balcony is good size. The goods: - they have a bridge to cross over to the beach where you can pick up beach chairs, towels, umbrella etc. They do have beach service to set up chairs and umbrella for $25 from 8 Am to 5 PM. - many pools - beautiful resort grounds - there are many restaurants, market, Starbucks coffee shop... so you do not need to leave the resort. The bads: - noise, noise and noise. It is so closed to PCH that the noise is unbearable especially for the ocean front room. They have earplugs for you... but really who wants to wear ear plugs all day?! - parking: no self park option. - our room has the parking view... hardly ocean front. For over $1000 per night, it is a rip off! I will definitely do not recommend ocean front room at this resort! Overall, it is ok stay for us but hardly relaxing.

The rooms are huge!…read more Compared to other hotels I have frequented, the rooms here were double the size...and they have large balconies too. The hotel, rooms, bathrooms, etc. are a bit dated but the place is of good value despite its age. The location is also prime! There are great food options like Japanese Katsu (KAGURA) and Roman style Pizza (SUGO) nearby within walking distance. A bit further is the shopping mall, so you have everything within striking distance. The airport is about 15 minutes away so its close enough to get to your flight but far enough not to hear planes passing thru. I'd stay here again, but to each their own.

I can't believe the low Yelp reviews on this place. I've stayed at this place multiple times and…read moreeach time has been really good. It's spacious, clean has plenty of self parking... Although you pay $45 a day for it but that's kind of standard right? People at the front desk were great and friendly, helpful, and eager to get you into your room as quick as possible. We had brought our pet with us and they were very accommodating with that, It was only an extra 50 bucks to bring our furry friend. This particular token had a Starbucks in it which made it convenient as we were in town for a show and had to get up early to go to the event. Overall comedy experience was very pleasant and the price was actually really good.. I used the hotels.com app and was able to find a screaming deal. So definitely check that out if you're going to go. Bottom line? If I'm ever in Orange county and need to get a a room I think I would definitely stay here again. The $45 a day parking is a little steep but hey I can get it real estate in Orange county. Is that a premium.
