The room was clean and comfortable. The customer service was perfect. The front desk lady was super nice and friendly. The only thing we did not enjoy was that the AC didn’t work.

Drury Plaza Hotel Chattanooga Hamilton Place
Everything was clean, staff was awesome. Complimentary food was good, but other food and beverages were quite expensive, but I guess that’s to be expected. My only gripe is that the pool area was too loud and echoed a lot. But overall it was a great experience and we will be returning.
