Queen of the Mississippi Gypsys (I've taken a lot of pictures at different cemeteries. This is the first place that not only my camera but also my phone glitched multiple times) Queen Kelly Mitchell died during the birth of her 15th child on January 31, 1915 in Coatopa, Alabama. Her husband, King Emil, sought local medical assistance and offered $10,000 if doctors could save her, but the efforts were in vain. The couple were the leaders of the Mitchell clan of Romany people, one of the largest in America. It was decided that she would be buried at the Rose Hill Cemetery in Meridian, MS. Her body was placed in a frozen state for 12 days, to allow time for more people to come and pay tribute. 20,000 people attended her funeral with music and celebrations included. Legends suggest that Kelly was buried in a $15,000 gold casket and/or that 20-dollar gold pieces were tossed into her grave. Her grave has been damaged multiple times by grave robbers. You might notice random things atop her tombstone, local lore states, "If you go up there and leave her a trinket, she'll come to you in a dream and solve all your troubles."

I like to imagine the industry that played out in the space where I'm resting, the thought of someone taking a break from wheeling and dealing to look out of this same window in the 1940s and what else was going on around them. I'd never been to Meridian before, just passed through on the same road trip home after the holidays. It's about 4 and a half hours from NOLA and the perfect place to stay before the final leg of the trip home so that we'd be home at a reasonable hour. Meridian feels a bit frozen in time and this hotel is situated in a quaint downtown area. It's not very lively, even on a Saturday night but I believe the rooftop bar here might be where the action is (I passed it by when getting water in the gym that's on the same floor). I like a Tribute property, which always promises a less corporate/more boutique stay. It has its charm (original mail chute, be still my heart!) and quirks (tiny rooms, old timey elevators that take their time). The main lobby is mainly the restaurant (closed when I arrived around 9pm on a Saturday) with reception in what seems like bank teller windows. I appreciate the convenience of a Starbucks right next door (entrance from the lobby) and if we weren't looking to rest after a endless car ride, there's a few places to get food/drinks within walking distance. Rooms are cozy, beds are excellent and the bathroom is small/nothing special. Would this be an ideal stay for a vacation? Probably not, though I don't expect a vacation in Meridian anytime soon, if ever. I'd stay again, as a more interesting road trip stay than your typical Marriott Courtyards/Fairfield/Residence Inns. When we stayed it was only a little over 100 dollars/night, which is pretty sweet.

For dinner we ordered a salad and dessert from the menu and some iced tea. Pretty simple order. The sweet server came out three times apologetically and said we cannot make the salad you ordered, we can only do a Caesar salad but also they had no shrimp or chicken to top it with. They were also out of ice tea and the dessert we ordered. I ordered some coffee and they were out of filters. Same thing happened for breakfast, they were out of fountain soft drinks and some menu items. We understand that things might not be available but so many in one stay? We are hoping this is not a trend downward for this wonderful place to stay. Shoutout to the valet folks on arrival and departure! They were excellent!
