10/10 Excellent
This Drury is in a great location. It is on the Riverwalk. You can’t beat the kickbacks that this place offers. We took our free breakfast to the terrace area on the roof each morning to eat. We also brought our free drinks up there each evening. It has an incredible view. We were surprised that no one else was up there with us. You must do this if you stay at the Drury. It’s a beautiful sunset spot as well. We enjoyed our stay here.

Older motel that is updated, clean, safe with great beds. It was nice to have my room cleaned every day. Breakfast is ok but not enough tables and chairs. This place is great for families visiting the theme parks.

We’re roadtripping through Texas and this was the best place we stayed at. The bed was super comfortable, the air worked wonderfully. The room was so clean and pretty. We were by the pool and that was noisy but it was kids playing, so it wasn’t a bother. My only complaint is the toilet bounced against the wall which might have bothered the neighbors. And the shower was slippery. Otherwise it was perfect.

Such a beautiful and cozy hotel. Totally got the historic vibe from our stay, the 3rd floor common area was gorgeous! Great location within 5 mins walking distance to all the fun activities near the Riverwalk. Amazing food options all so nearby. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Only downside is that free parking is not included with reservation and costs about $23/day but other than that a great stay!

Reviewing the property like most places with construction all around yet property was clean staff excellent and very helpful. The fact that they had staff to drive you to nearby stores made it even better when you don’t know the city or area. I would recommend staying at this property. Safe quiet and easily accessible to main streets.
