Meridian Ms

I stayed at the Drury Inn there when I went to LSU-Bama game. There's a few chain restaurants in walking distance of the parking lot.

Stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn and you’ll be fine. There is a BWW nearby and several other chain options. There is a restaurant downtown called Weidmanns that is a hidden gem....a little more upscale but excellent food.

You’ll be ok

Yes there is a Hampton Inn/Hilton Garden as well as a few others right off the interstate. Food and gas right nearby. Get a good meal, a good night’s sleep and back on the road in the AM. If it’s not Sunday grab a chicken biscuit at Chik Fila on the way out.

Yes it is fine

Grab some food at Jean’s
