We had an incredibly kind and thoughtful desk clerk at check in last night. He was quite helpful and quick. The hotel is near CID airport, and Avid has a program where you can leave your car in a secure lot for 5.00 a day. They will shuttle you to and from the airport from 5 am until 11 pm! This saved us 60.00!

This was my second time staying here. The rooms are very small, but if you're staying to catch a flight in the morning, it's perfect. The hotel and rooms are very clean and updated. The only downside to the hotel is that there is no hot tub. They have plenty of food for breakfast as well.
