Dru's is located a couple of minutes from Camp Shelby's south gate. This is a very "mom and pop" inn. Clean and maintained - but it isn't the Hilton. Everyone was very nice and I was comfortable there traveling alone. If you are visiting someone that is deploying or coming home, do not hesitate to stay here. This is the closest location to them.
Rooms are all the same. Two queen beds, larger mini fridge and a microwave. Housekeeping was VERY NICE and will do their best to accomodate you. Dru's has wireless internet and I had no problems with it. I used it everyday with absolutely no issues. There wasn't a coffee maker in the room but they do offer free coffee and rolls in the office every morning.
If you are staying for an extended period, they do have laundry facilities on site.
There is an Exxon with a mini mart within walking distance. Some fast food and a couple of small restaurants are also located in the same general area. Note that Dru's Inn is located right off of 49 so do use caution when walking. I was there during a "leave" week so there was a LOT of traffic. Be careful and hold on to kids.
Dru's is located about 10 - 15 minutes from Hattiesburg - you will need a car. If you are flying in, consider flying into New Orleans (about 2 hours away - very easy drive) or Gulf Port (about an hour drive). It was a little expensive for me to fly directly into Hattiesburg. The other airport locations were much cheaper, even when I factored in the price of a car rental.
