The hotel was clean and staff friendly and helpful but I found the pillows uncomfortable and the street noise very loud until 12:30-1:00. We were on the 12 floor but trikes and souped up cars from the nightclubs were peeling out and seemed to drive up and down N. Water Street. We would NOT stay here again.

Our stay was fabulous. From check in to check out, all the staff we encountered were wonderful. Even seeing how efficient, accommodating, and kind the staff was during busy breakfast mornings and happy hour was awesome. Our check-in host, Tamarion, was very personable and engaging. Her energetic smile was much needed after a long day of travel. My husband, who is very picky, has put this hotel at the top of list for stays in other cities. Keep doing a great job!

Show some love!

The check out was a little rough. Check out girl was giving me a little bit of a hard time about checking out maybe 5 to 10 minutes late. Because if conference people. I mean, she was going to charge me another $30. Believe me We were trying to get out of there. I was waiting in line for concert tickets at The Riverside. There's only so much I can do I hustled, to get back to make sure that I wouldn't have an issue with the hotel or her. I've been staying at this hotel twice a year for the last twelve years. I love the Drury. I love the rooms. I love the hot tub. I think the food is good overall.The service is really good, I just would appreciate that if I'm asking for 5 or ten minutes not to get grief from the checkout person when I spend a lot of money every year, twice a year. Overall, she wasn't rude.She wasn't mean I just really wasn't appreciative of her tone and telling me that she's going to charge me. Not to worry, I will be booking again. I love coming there. I just would really appreciate a little acknowledgement that I've been coming there for such a long time, I'm more of a VIP than any of those conference people that ever come that show up once a year and never come back ever again. You love me.Treat me like you love me!
