Very conveniently located on the northside of Evansville right on the highway from Terre Haute to Evansville, the Drury Inn was an easy find. Evansville does not have many (any?) hotels ranking above three stars, and I would put the Drury at the top of the options. Although the room was not large, it was certainly adequate, and had a refrigerator and microwave. The WiFi is free, which was a big plus as I had to do some research to find gluten free restaurant info. The staff at the front desk was very efficient, friendly and helpful--offering directions to the restaurant and parking suggestions for the concert we were attending. It would be possible for most people (without dietary restrictions) to eat dinner at the hotel because they offer three drinks per person and food at no cost for a couple of hours in the evening. The night we were there they served hot wings, beef hot dogs, baked potatoes, nachos, and more. In the mornings they offer a breakfast buffet that includes sausage, scrambled eggs, yogurt, fruit, cereals, juices/coffee/milk, waffles, bagels, etc. at no charge. [This would have been wonderful in the days when we were traveling with two young boys or teenagers; it would have saved us the cost of two family meals for 4!] There were enough options that I could have their breakfast despite food allergies, and I really appreciated that. Although we did not use them, there is a pool and exercise room (about 3-5 treadmills/ex. bikes). Everything was clean and we felt safe in the area. While we were there many construction and utility crews were also staying the the hotel and there are train tracks nearby, but our room was quiet and we were never disturbed. We definitely would stay at this hotel again. I do think it is time to update the mattresses and TVs in the rooms. We slept OK but most hotels that charge around $100--including other Drury Inns we have stayed in--have more up-to-date bedding and TVs. There is a Denny's right next door for those who want more food options than what the inn offers without having to drive.
