We'll need to park for about 2.5 weeks in February.

Given TX's reputation being big and wide-open and the fact that IAH is so freaking far out of town, I was hopeful that IAH would have cheap long-term parking. Looks like I was right. I'm finding as low as $4/day on http://www.airportparkingreservation...rt_parking_iah and http://www.bestparking.com/iah-parking/ and $5.54 (plus tax but not including a 20% discount coupon I found) for the airport authority's own EcoPark lot.

So, while I began composing this thread thinking I'd need to ask for help finding affordable parking, that has now changed into just posting this thread to ask for any tips, such as, "Don't park at the Red Roof Inn because cars are stolen all the time and the shuttle only runs once an hour" or "the Ramada's shuttle runs every 10 minutes, so don't park at the EcoPark lot because theirs only runs every half an hour" or "the EcoPark lot is way safer and closer than the Ramada's" or something like that.

Tips?
