The Avid chain is new and is basically a copy of contemporary European budget business hotels with some American-style downgrades and upgrades. You get a meager breakfast, but you get a huge TV. It’s an OK chain for an overnight business stay off the highway but Traverse City is a vacation spot. The rooms are tiny and there is no storage. You get four hangers on hooks on a wall. That’s it. You get one desk chair and a bed. Basically, you’re forced to live out of your suitcase in an austere not at all homey hotel. Plus in Traverse City, the room rates are high, not at all budget. The place is clean and the staff is friendly, but this is an odd duck of a hotel in a town where you want to relax and unwind for a few days.

This is true to brand. Room and facilities were clean and comfortable. We did not try the pool, it looked small and clean. I was expecting to see the lake better but could just barely see it. The water pressure in the room wasn’t great, otherwise everything was as expected.
