Just a few small notes, Behind the Main door the maids have not cleaned the cob webs from the ceiling, a few mosquitos have been caught. The door in the toilet are is peeling from the bottom and needs to be looked at by the maintenance staff. Will comment about breakfast in the morning. Glad I waited till this morning. Just Waffles, cereal and Bread in the morning. Only regular coffee which was warm, DECAF you have to make in your room not offered at the breakfast area.

If you like a firm mattress and reasonably priced hotel with no frills this is a decent place. We have worked in Meridian and stayed at several different hotels and paid a lot more money and the rooms weren't as clean. I won't be staying here again because I need a softer bed and the king we slept in killed my shoulders and back, BUT my husband said it was fine for him and he slept good. Hope this helps.

The comfort in was the only other option and closer to the interstate, but it was $90 more?! So we thought, "what the hell" $65 after taxes...okay fine. Pulling up I thought, "oh lord this run down roach motel" but as soon as I opened the door to a crisp cool room with a clean smell I said, "oh sh*t, okay "... the room is a very gracious size, with plenty of space and a fridge. I was expecting a tiny shower, but Its plenty of space for 2 to get raunchy. I even like the updated tile and the floors throughout are really nice. I scoured the room for bugs...nothing and other than the 1950s air-conditioning, it's clean enough I'm comfortable. The bed is great, but almost gotta take a running head start to get into it. The sheet you sleep on is like a light face towel...sorta ruff, but soft..its hard to explain, but it's actually really nice. The pillow top is nice, but it's not been rotated so the head is lower than the feet, so I gotta sleep with my head at the foot or my boobs will suffocate me, but Its comfy. I am assuming they don't have breakfast, and I'm not taking a chance on looking in the ice bin way up front... but I hope more people look past the ruff exterior and give Comfort Inn the finger as the unload into this high rise of a motel!

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.

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."

They were looking for a small group experience and contacted the usual companies that provided this service. All of these travel companies/travel agents said that nothing was available. My sister- in-law used Google to gather information about travel companies who book trips to Alaska. Some representatives called her back and some did not. Well she hit the jackpot when Kimberly Denison of Denison Travel returned her call. Kimberly listened to my sister-in-law and came up with the most spectacular private 6 person tour to Alaska August 20th through August 29th. Kimberly secured a driver for our group who took us to our daily adventures. She also gathered information about restaurants in each location which was extremely helpful. From crossing the Artic Circle by air, to flying by helicopter into a glacier and walking on it, to watching bear catch salmon and eat them in Lake Charles (which we got to by float plane), each day's adventure truly was spectacular. This was a trip of a lifetime and our family is indebted to Kimberly for having the patience to put this trip together for us. Thank you Kimberly! Best, Dottie Whipple
