The room was clean however there was no bath towels and it was an inconvenience at 10 o’clock at night to call main lobby and was told that they were washing the towels and we needed to pick them up. That was ridiculous for us not to have an organized room with bath towels. Also the toilet cover was yellow and dirty. Saturday breakfast was very poor service, not enough food and scrambled eggs were empty or no refills.
We kept asking for coffee and it wasn’t done. Juices were empty too. It was just a mess,Everybody waiting for breakfast and nothing was prepared. It was ridiculous..

Our room was clean, bed was really comfortable.
Staff was very helpful. Breakfast was uneventful.
They had biscuits and gravy, and sausage patties and scrambled eggs.
The waffle mix was a regular mix and one listed as chocolate but it smelled like a berry batter
There was no syrup and we didn’t find out until after we made the waffle that we’d need to wait for delivery for the syrup. So we didn’t have our waffles. The blueberry muffins were okay.

There was a different issue but we talked to the staff about it and they said they definitely would handle it.

Other than that it was a nice stay.

This property is modern and comfortable with rustic ambiance that matches the surrounding area. the room was absolutely clean and everything was in great condition. The bed was comfortable. It was easy to access the Wifi, too.

My first night, there were issues with loud guests in the middle of the night that went unresolved despite calling the front desk twice. (They were running up and down the hall and knocking on walls and trying to open room doors that were not theirs.) I spoke with the front desk the next morning and they assured me the party in question was leaving and were kind in listening and working with me to resolve the issue. It did not repeat again, thankfully.

The breakfast was pretty good and I otherwise felt comfortable and safe staying at this hotel. There were plenty of spaces inside and outside of this hotel to relax.

We appreciated the welcoming staff - often similar sized hotels only have 1 person at check-in but Ayres had 2 and they were efficient. They offered cookies in the evening and a very nice breakfast in the morning. We also took advantage of the weight room and jacuzzi. Finally, despite being close to the freeway, it was very quiet.

Clean rooms. Breakfast was decent in terms of “breakfast included”, the menu was the same for 7 days. They were actively improving the landscaping around the hotel grounds.Friendly check in. Had included car charging which was a great added bonus. Close to the highway but not a lot of noise. Great area. I would highly recommend this hotel.

It was great. It is a motel, so your door does open to the parking lot. However, it is tucked away just enough that it felt safe and clean. A small gathering of businesses is a two minute walk away that includes a collection of different food possibilities, which was convenient. Overall, we would be happy to stay here again.

My husband and I had a great stay at here. The room was simple but very clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The housekeeping staff was attentive, and all of the employees we interacted with were incredibly kind and helpful.
We especially enjoyed the beautiful view behind the hotel, the fire pit area, and the pool. And omg the evening cookies from 7–9 PM were also a nice touch 😋 Breakfast was the same each day, but it was good and we had no complaints.
Also recommend eating at the Pho spot there and visiting the two thrift stores nearby 😊

Came in for a women’s motorcycle event. The location is super conscientious to I8, with several small shops and amenities right in walking distance. William and Ashley were so helpful and even walked around our group handing out warm cookies in the evening. The pool and hot tub were clean and sunny. The shuttle to the casino was super easy and pleasant, and the fire pit out back was a huge hit! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! We will definitely stay here again

The staff was very friendly and nice. Property is basic but pretty clean. Could use some updates, which it looked like they were doing. Outdoor space is nice. Reviews said breakfast was better than other hotels, but I didn't think there was a very good selection and no gluten free items. My husband enjoyed the evening cookies. A little far out from San Diego if planning activities there. I wanted to be out of the city, but it was maybe a little too far.

Ayres Lodge Alpine, was an excellent experience, especially for the price. I stayed there two weeks and even put family up in another room one night. I must recommend it especially to other EV owners, as they have a very favorable charging policy, and at least while I was there, fewer EV driving guests than chargers, so there was always a Level 2 (40Amp) NACS plug available.

The bath and room were clean. The switch for the bath was creatively located, but once found it posed no hardship. As for the tub/shower. This is the only time on this Earth that I've found a tub that had a good grip on my feet and didn't look unclean. I don't know who made those tubs (rooms 105 and 131), but they were awesome. No slip.

I have no idea if the TV worked, I generally don't use those, but it was of adequate size, possibly 42\" or larger.

The staff were awesome. Front desk was available, friendly and helpful at all hours.

The free breakfast was limited but good. Scrambled eggs (probably reconstituted, but good) and bacon, or maybe sausage. Biscuit (perhaps a little stodgy, but substantial) was adequate, Coffee was excellent. Pastries/bagels/etc were limited. Certainly worth the price, though I sometimes took breakfast elsewhere for variety.

I used the apparently well kept laundry facilities once while there. 3 washers and 3 dryers, all commercial front-loaders.

Amenities abound at the open-air \"mall\" that shares the parking lot. Didn't try everything, but what I had was fine.

The lodge was undergoing extensive renovation at the time of our stay. Nevertheless, staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Access to a major interstate was very easy. The lodge is surrounded by a several eating establishments and other services. The room were in excellent condition; breakfast was ok, enough to keep you going until lunch.

Do not ever under any circumstances ever consider staying here .
I made a reservation through Expedia
Payment was taken and the hotel confirmed the reservation
I arrived late after a long day and a flight from NY there was no one at the counter, but there was a sign saying back in 10 minutes, so I proceeded to sit down and wait and wait at some point The phone rang and a woman emerged from the back with a bell that she proceeded to place on the counter saying ring the bell for service. Meanwhile, the phone rang and she immediately picked up the phone as if I wasn’t even there and then told the person that there was one room left and that they were going to get it and took all the information and proceeded to deal with me at that point she told me that I did not have a reservation so I showed her the reservation on my phone. She said she could check in another area showing enough. She said my reservation was canceled canceled by who she said it was canceled because it was overbooked and that, I should’ve received a phone call but they didn’t have my phone number. This is absolutely ridiculous because she gave somebody else a room five minutes before. If she would’ve taken the time just to speak with me before she took the phone call maybe I would’ve had a room instead I had to drive at half hour all the way back to Chula Vista because there’s no hotels anywhere near that area. It was a disgrace never mind that it’s run down. I would rather stay at the Bates Motel.

East County gem. This is the 3rd time that I have stayed at Ayers Lodge, and it is truly a gem in East County. The rooms are clean (and now renovated,) the amenities are wonderful! (There is a sitting area outside, along with tables and chairs, a BBQ grill, as well as a fire pit. They have a great breakfast with a large selection, as well as chocolate chip cookies every night. The property is quiet and secluded despite being right by the freeway. There is a shuttle that will take you to and from Viejas Casino if you want to go there. This hotel is also close to several bars and restaurants. Definitely my go-to lodging when I come back home to visit.

Love this hotel! It’s become our go-to when we visit San Diego. We especially like it because it is so clean and well kept. The breakfast is hearty, delicious and has great selections. There’s an extensive selection of places to eat nearby. There’s ample parking and the surrounding area very tranquil. They have tables and chairs in the back where you can enjoy a meal. We highly recommend this hotel.
