The hotel is centrally located in downtown Memphis, making it super convenient to explore the area with great dining options nearby. The rooms, although a bit small, are clean and comfortable. The service was friendly and went above and beyond with kindness. However, the noise issue with running water in the pipes made it hard to sleep in the morning, and the drinks were a bit overpriced.

The hotel's location is convenient, with friendly staff and good facilities. The rooms were small but awesome, although could be cleaner. It was a bit of a walk to some places, yet super close to many Memphis attractions. The dining options were decent. Overall, a solid stay with some room for improvement.

I had a corner view room that allowed me to see a good portion of the area, but unfortunately, it reeked so bad of cigarette smoke that my clothes stank for the entire trip. The room lacked a coffee maker, and the lobby didn't have one either.

The location was congested due to street availability issues and situated in a run-down section. The bathroom had mildew, and the smoke alarm caused disturbances at 3 am. Despite these drawbacks, the hotel was conveniently close to streetcars and easy to walk around.

Dining was problematic as options were limited and ended early, forcing us to seek meals elsewhere. The highlight was the availability of organic Quebec cheeses.

The hotel had spacious and great value rooms, though the temperature needed adjustment upon our return. The service was incredibly friendly and helpful, making our stay pleasant. The location, despite being in a run-down sector, was close to all our desired activities. While the dining experience meant seeking options elsewhere, the hotel offered good local cold cuts. Overall, a mixed but satisfactory stay.

The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms should be immaculate but had some issues like missing coffee makers and noise from running water, making mornings a bit challenging. There was a mix-up with the billing process that caused confusion. On the bright side, the service was very nice and accommodating, with incredibly friendly and helpful staff.

I had a great stay at the hotel! The location was hard to beat, with an amazing experience close to downtown attractions but far enough away to enjoy a quiet time. The rooms were immaculate and offered a corner view, allowing me to see a good portion of the area. The service was outstanding, with friendly interactions during check-out and even conversations about our plans and where we are from. However, the hotel is in a dated section, and there were issues with cleanliness like fungus in the shower and soil on the floor. The dining options were limited after 10:30, but the fish and chips were delicious.
