I'm 85 years old, we spent the night at the Meridian, Ms. Drury. Cleanest and most comfortable room I've ever had. Everything was excellent, professional staff all around, good free dinner when we arrived and good free breakfast to wake up to. Nothing at all wrong! A rare treat after a 9 hour drive. This was our first stay at Drury but it won't be out last.

Clean, quiet hotel
This is for a stay at the Drury Inn in St. Joseph, MO.
The pros:
1. Very clean
2. Very Quiet
3. Friendly staff
4 Excellent breakfast which includes toast, pastries, apples, bananas, oranges, three types of cold cereal, hot oatmeal, sausage, biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, apple and orange juice and coffee. There was a covered pan labeled pancakes, but there were none the two days we stayed there.
5. They also have a 5 p.m. meal
6. Pool was open and appeared to be clean.
7. There is a second thermostat on the wall so that you do not have to go to the built in wall unit to control the temperature.
Cons:
1. Entrance may be somewhat hard to find for some people because hotel sits behind a convenience store/gas station and the entrance is through a shared parking lot between that store and a Mexican restaurant.
2. There was a slight sewer smell in the lobby the day we checked in, but not in the rest of the hotel. This smell was gone by the second day so it must have been a temporary problem with a nearby restroom.
3. The set up for hanging clothes is weird. Instead of a rod going al the way across and a shelf for clothes and hats above that, there is a short rod high up on the same level as the shelves, then the shelves themselves in a sort of cube shape and then a longer lower rod under the shelves for more clothes. The upper rod is too narrow to hang more than a couple of things and the iron and ironing board are in the same space. We had to move the iron to have enough space to hang up our longer clothes because they dragged the floor on the lower rod.
4. The hinged door for the bathroom had been removed and a sliding door on a track had ben installed on the wall outside the bathroom. The problem was that the door would not stay slid all the way shut and left at least a 6"gap. Not only was this a privacy problem when answering the call of nature in the bathroom, but the door also covered the clothes hanging area when slid open. We were constantly sliding the door one way or the other.
5. There is no vent or heat bulb in the bathroom. If you stink up the bathroom you just have to live with it, even in the rest of the room, since the sliding door would not stay all the way shut. The mirror also fogs up with no vent. If you are cold blooded you have to dry off quickly with no heat bulb.
6. The bathroom had apparently been converted to a handicapped room because it had a walk-in shower, handrails around the toilet and the aforementioned sliding door, We had not asked for a handicapped room, but were OK with that. The doorway looked wide enough, and the bathroom was big enough, that we wondered why they needed to remove the original door. Also, the toilet seemed to be regular height rather than handicapped height, although we did not measure it.
The pros far outweigh the somewhat minor cons and we would recommend a stay here.

Made reservations in Greensborough
Made reservations in Greensborough, NC for a suite. It said it was 5 stars on the web. When we checked in and went to our room, we opened the door and the smell was horrible. It smelled like smoke and booze, the carpet was filthy, the sheets had black grease stains on them and there were people partying in the hallway at 2am for hours.
My husband found a sewing needle in the carpet which our small dog could have stepped on. We should have left as soon as we saw the room. Worst hotel we’ve ever been in- dump!

Unprofessional Interview Practices
Went to an interview at Drury located in Meridian, MS, I arrived earlier to show I appreciated the opportunity, was told to take a seat and they would be right with me. Sat there for 2 hours and was never acknowledged again, so I left without being interviewed.

Thumbs-UP to the Drury Hotel chain
On my current bus trip thru the southern US, we have already stayed at 4 different Drury Hotels and I want to give a "shout-out" to them for the friendliness (except for one afternoon receptionist at the Memphis South hotel on March 10th). Other than that one incident, all 28 of our bus roster have been very happy with the reception of our group, the prompt and friendly service, and the condition of the rooms & hotel. What I would especially love to comment on though, was the extremely kind & generous perk of the "kick-back", which includes a free hot dinner buffet, 3 free alcohol beverages or of your choice, and a free hot breakfast - during specific times. This "perk" is saving this Great Canadian Bus load of Seniors a whole lot of money and we most definitely appreciate it. Thank YOU, Drury Hotels. We look forward to 5 more nights with you folks over the course of the next 2 weeks.
