Room With an Anti-View: Dreary Drury Inn in Charlotte
You know the scene. You open the door to your brand new hotel room, run over to the window, open the blinds and bam, you are hit with the anti-view. Maybe you are looking down a dirty alley, witnessing a drug deal, staring at an air shaft in the face, or seeing a brick wall. Whatever you are viewing it is not extremely pleasurable. Help out your fellow hotel mavens by uploading your anti-views to the HotelChatter/Flickr photo pool, or by sending the photo along to us. Remember to tell us the name of the hotel and the room number with the not-so-easy-on-the-eyes view.

Here's what you'd see if you checked into Room 234 at the Drury Inn and Suites in Charlotte, North Carolina. When leinsterman stayed there a couple of weeks ago, they took the liberty of renaming the Drury to be the "dreary", thanks to the very uninspiring nature of the view and of the room trimmings around it, too, we guess.
Interestingly, the Drury Inn of Charlotte scores 4th place out of 155 hotels ranked in TripAdvisor, so dreary views don't ruin a hotel. Average room rates are $118 and they're keen on advertising their free hot breakfast with eggs cooked however you want them, so we're keen to test them out for the perfect soft-boiled egg. If they get the egg right, we don't care so much about the view.
