I cannot say enough great things about this hotel and the staff. I have never met such wonderful hotel employees in all my life. If I wanted anything, they were more than happy to see that I got it and they always had a smile on their face. It was also the cleanest place I have ever stayed. The entire time I was there, the staff was scrubbing anything from baseboards to elevator walls! I would definately recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Charlotte.

A clean and comfortable double room, in a hotel with a pool, hot breakfast, luggage carts, and other nice touches -- all for about $80. A good deal all around.

We stayed for 2 nights at this hotel and found it very pleasant. The pool was nice and warm and we liked that it was indoor/outdoor. The spa could use a cleaning (don't look into the trap while sitting in there unless you plan to be plagued with sick thoughts-it was black with gunk). The rooms were very clean, the front desk staff so polite and the morning breakfast hot and fresh! It's really nice that TGIFridays shares the parking lot. We will definately stay again.

I was very pleasantly surprised with my two nights at Drury Inn/Suites. Many familiar hotels were booked due to college graduation, so I selected Drury. Staff was very cheerful and friendly, rooms very clean and comfortable (bed was rather hard, though). Perks included free hot breakfast buffet (scrambled eggs, sausage, french toast & the usual continental breakfast offerings), free long distance telephone for one hour every evening, free high speed internet. Rate was only $64.99/night (king bed). They also have some suites at the hotel, but I'm not sure of the price. Hotel is on a main drag in the University City area, directly next to a Friday's restaurant. Only negative was driving into the parking lot - The entrance is off a side street, and there's a small center median that blocks your turning left into the hotel. When you think you'll do a U-turn around it... there's a "no U-turn sign" there! You have to pull into a small street behind the hotel, do a 3-point turn, and come back out onto the road to pull in the parking lot. Fortunately, once you get your access code at check in, you can get through that rear gate without the funky maneuver. All in all, I'd gladly stay there again, especially for that price.
