Lived up to expectations from other Avid properties we have stayed in. $50 pet fee was a little high... but at last minute there was really no choice but to pay it.

It was annoying that booking through you guys they charge me a $50 fee that won’t be refunded to my account for 3 to 5 business days. I didn’t have the extra $50 to not be in my account as I am traveling so that was an unexpected surprise.

Check-in was quick. However the cable tv went out early evening and wasn’t available for the night. The windows in the lobby look like they haven’t been cleaned for months and was especially noticeable when the morning sun was shining in. If you get a room facing 17th street be prepared for a lot of street noise from traffic throughout the night.
