The Avid is fresh, modern,...

Liked: The Avid is one of three in this brand owned by IHG (I asked). I'm sure they'll build many more. The appearance is fresh, with clean lines, and good use of space when you walk in. A full 24-hr. coffee/tea/water/juice station is well situated. A small thing but valuable, they give you larger cups than other places, and they come with a solid-fitting cover. No spilling hot liquid as you go back to your room. They offer several teas, including herbal flavors.No long walk to the rooms. We saw a small, but adequate gym a few doors away from ours. My wife used it, and it was fine.The beds are wonderful, the large TV is the perfect size, Internet was good, and the bathroom was excellent. They feature an upgraded showerhead that gives you a great flow of water.Breakfast is a bit different than other places, and I hope their model catches on. While most hotels in this price range offer a small buffet with a few choices, the selection on our one-day stay was an egg-white omelet with spices (good), sausage biscuit, and one other item (can't recall because I grabbed the omelet and moved on). In addition, there is a separate large table with fresh fruit, bagels, pastries, oatmeal, cereals, food bars, Chobani Greek yogurt (different flavors), and several more items. The bagels were big and fresh, and the fruit was ripe and good. I've had a ton of hotel buffets, and many are picked over or depleted by the time I got to them, and too many were just not very good. Avid doesn't try to replicate that style. We ate what we wanted and ended up grabbing some things to take back to the room for later. Is it a five-star breakfast? No, and that's not the goal. It's quick, has several options, and it's good. Plus that thing about taking a second round back to the room. Try it, and see if you don't agree.The price was very reasonable and the staff is courteous and friendly.Couldn't have asked for more.
Disliked: No negatives at all. Well, actually one.That we couldn't stay longer.
