avid hotel Fort Worth – Fossil Creek by IHG

Place was very clean. Pillows were surprisingly comfy-not like the usual very flat hotel pillows. Mattress was comfy as well. The desk staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Couldn’t beat the stay for the price! The appliances in our room all worked well. (No coffee maker in the room though) Overall the place was very quiet and peaceful! Lastly-the breakfast in the morning is mainly to-go options. You can make packaged oatmeal or grab a heated sandwich. There’s also cereal and some fruit but that was it. Again, for the price of the hotel I am not complaining!

The look and the vibe were great. Staff was helpful and friendlyfriendly. I loved the coffee being available 24 hours, as well as the perfect blend that wasn't too strong! While I did not get to enjoy the breakfast, everything looked neat and stocked. The decor is great, and the lounge is very chill. The room is set up in a really unique way and is really a neat vibe! The bed was comfy, and so were the pillows!

Breakfast omelette, clean room, free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate bar always open.

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.

Breakfast was ok- location was perfect took 15 mins in a taxi to the stockyards and 10 mins to sundance square in taxi
