Amazing
Pros:

Everything was very clean; but it was the staff that impressed me most. The staff were very friendly. It was very obvious that the staff truly enjoyed their work and who they worked for.

Cons:

I can’t say that there was anything I didn’t like. Some people prefer big, fluffy pillows but I prefer something more flat; therefore a suggestion might be a variety of pillows in the room.

Perfect, would highly recommend staying there!
Pros:

The main standout was how very clean the entire facility was throughout the three days we were there! Exceptional service, and good food with a nice variety as well.

Cons:

I should have asked for a tub instead of just a shower, I didn't realize until we were in the room.

If ever, we are in need of staying all night in the area again, we will definitely choose Drury Inn
Pros:

We got to check in after 10 o’clock. I appreciated that the doors were all locked at that point in the evening and that you must have a key to get in. The lady at the front desk was super friendly and very attentive to our reason for staying. She made a very close personal connection from one mom to another. Our room was very spacious and clean! The next morning we had a delicious breakfast with a wide variety of nice breakfast items that were fresh and hot. The breakfast area staff or friendly and helpful! The food was very good.

Cons:

The only thing I would have improved is that the biscuits were put in the warmer cold. My biscuit was OK but my mom‘s biscuit was pretty cold. They tasted delicious. Just needed to be warm.

Absolutely amazing!

The food was amazing and plentiful! (Both meals each day) The room was very clean (as was the entire building) and comfortable.

Cons:

No complaints whatsoever. Best hotel stay experience ever!

It was a very pleasant stay.
Pros:

Really liked the free food and cocktails provided each evening. Pretty much everyone expects free breakfast (and their offerings were good, plentiful and sufficiently varied.) Rooms/beds were comfortable and kept clean and well maintained.
The staff was friendly and helpful always wishing you a "Good Morning/Evening"

Cons:

There was no on-site restaurant per-se so you'd have to drive a bit if you wanted to eat elsewhere so it helps to have your own car.
