Thanks for the suggestions. ^ I'm leaning toward the $7 a day place, as I am cheap. Why else would I drive to CLE from Ann Arbor for a flight?
And I was concerned no one comes to this forum and my question would go unanswered.
If I can help either of you with DTW/TOL or NW questions, please PM or post here.

Even cheaper - park in the RTA lot on Brook Park Road and ride the train. Parking is free, and the 5 minute train ride to the airport costs $1.50 each way. That's what I do when flying out of CLE.

David, I'll buy you a beer at the next Do we attend, I liked this tip so much. Thanks!
When coming off 480E, get off at the airport exit. Turn left at the light. The airport entrance will be on your right. About a 1/2 mile later, the RTA lot is on your left.

Is there a time limit on how long you can park at this lot?

Nope no Time limit
safety of your car can be an issue. There have been TSA folk who have gotten their car broken into althought it is a rarity. If it happens you won't be able to go to the RTA and sue them like you might at Park Place. Generally its pretty safe though.

There were many cars at the back of the lot, because that is where you go to catch the train. I think any thief will look for a soft target at the back of the lot, versus one by itself near the road. Just MHO.
I'd park there again.

What's the current status on parking at the Brook Park RTD lot? Seems like they now have a row that is designated for overnight parking with signs saying 5 days maximum. Anyone know how strictly this is enforced?

Public Service Announcement:
The airport website for parking info borders on useless. On Wednesday, it indicated both the Red and Blue covered parking lots as <90% full. I pull up and Red is Full, fortunately Blue was not. Before I got out of my car once parked, I checked the website again and it still claimed Red as <90% full.
Is anyone surprised?
