Ayres Hotel Anaheim

10/10 Excellent

"The location is prime. Literally across the street from the Honda center which makes it extremely convenient. Parking is $15 a night. They have a little convince store on the side by the front desk which includes frozen foods to snacks, candy and amenities. Really handy to have but to be aware it is on the expensive side and be prepared to pay card. It’s self serve as well! So you just grab your items, scan and pay. The room had an ample amount of room with a spacious bathroom. Water pressure is good. Basic shower and tub. Provided with the typical amenities which includes body wash, shampoo, conditioner and bar of soap. A/C blows cold though when the fan is off/ a/c is no running, has a smell to it. Not sure if it was just our unit or ifs normally like that but not a big issue. There is a small fridge, microwave, sink and coffee machine in the room. Breakfast was delicious, lots of variety to eat. Cook was nice and enjoyed having a conversation with him. He was great guy, wish I could have gotten him name to five him a shout out! Would 100% stay here again. Enjoyed the stay very much"
