    Had an overnight business trip in the area. Refueled and had them hangar my Saratoga overnight. Avis is onsite; nice runways; instrument approaches; friendly and helpful line crew/staff. If you have to travel to SW Chicago, it's a great GA airfield.

    Stopped for 5 nights at KLOT in May 2016. Two nice runways and friendly FBO, pilot lounge, clean restrooms, wifi. Bought gas and there was no tie-down fee. Avis rental car agency on site. Bring your own tie-down ropes.
