Hi everyone:
Contemplating taking the LSL on Friday from BOS to Toledo. I think the train gets in Toledo around 6 a.m.ish, and I am going to the airport to rent a car so I can drive to Cincinnati.
So I have a few questions, if anyone has ever done this:
1. How difficult is it to get a taxi at the Amtrak station that time of day? Should I try to order one or a service ahead of time?
What might the fare be?
2. Avis opens first at the airport so I am going with them. Are the car rental places right at the airport?
3. I am taking the LSL on Monday morning back to Boston. On my return on Sunday night, I will need to return the car and then get a hotel room?? Would it be better to get a hotel near the station (and if so, can anyone recommend one?) or should I stay out by the airport and take a cab in the morning? I know the train leaves uber early I think like 3 am something..
Thanks!
