"Breakfast was good as always"

Ayres Hotel Costa Mesa/Newport Beach

8/10 Good

"The only thing is that the room was super far from check in. Other then that everything was great. Next time I will ask for a closer room."

Avenue of the Arts Costa Mesa, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

8/10 Good

"We had a 2x queen room + balcony, but it really was not a balcony. Only a sliding door with a ~1ft area to step out onto, while other rooms had full baclonies with tables/chairs. This should have been made clear or been less costly than those rooms. Bathroom is small and was lacking ample storage + towel racks for our family of 3. No drawers in the bathroom. Beds were comfortable, A/C worked well, staff was friendly and kind. Pool is small. Overall comfortable and positive; good for the price and location but a little lacking in some areas."

New Luxury Disney Vacation w/ Game Room

10/10 Excellent

"The house was exactly as advertised and very clean and well kept. The home was equipped with everything you could need besides food of course. We will definitely book this place again if we plan to stay in the area. Communication was great with the owners as well."
