This is my second stay at this location but different unit. The location is prime towards walking to Beale Street or other tourist locations. We spent a lot of time walking even though we drove to Memphis for the trip and had a vehicle available for usage. SOB, Slider Inn, and the Arcade are nearby restaurants with great tasting food. The property is clean, well organized, and modern. Great communication from the owners.

Great Location & Excellent Communication

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely, rustic space. It was great to have a dedicated parking spot and be within walking distance of FedEx Forum and Beale Street, where all the action is. Tim was fantastic with communication before, during, and after our stay, making everything smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend!

Consistently Great!

We loved our stay and will continue to return to this property. You will always feel safe, the parking is perfect and you will love the location. The noise and city appeal isn’t for all but it is for anyone wanting to enjoy the heart of downtown Memphis.

Urban Without the Edge

Everything about it was easy and comfortable: the accommodations; the neighborhood; the walking proximity to sites, the river, restaurants, etc. We settled right in and got to know Memphis. The exposed brick gives the space loads of character and all of its appointments feel new.

Great apartment in a great location.

This property was exactly as advertised - clean, bright, spacious and thoughtfully furnished. It is located in the thick of the Arts District and close to many of the main attractions of Memphis. It’s lively at night, but not outrageously so, and the ear plugs, eye masks and white noise machines for each bedroom more than took care of any issues we might have had. The parking spot was great to have, as well. We definitely would stay here again.

Drag racing

The property was very nice, convenient and comfortable. I have zero complaints about anything under the control of the property owners. However, the street it is located on has a major street racing problem. Every night we were awaken in the middle of the night by the sounds of street racing and cars making skid mark donuts in the middle of the street.

We Absolutely loved our time here! It was clean and management was very communicative! We felt at home and there was NO noise from any other vacationers in the building. It is worth noting that the Main Street is very noisy through the night. We were aware of this before booking. One thing that we were not aware of was that the ambulance/emergency vehicles would use the road all night, sirens blaring. Again, nothing that the management can do to stop that. It was just a surprise to us. Management did provide sleep masks and ear plugs! It you can’t do ear plugs, this will be hard to stay at. The beds were comfortable! The bathroom and kitchen were nice and everything functioning perfectly. The living space was cute and our daughter thought the couch was excellent for napping/sleeping haha. Thank you for a great mini vacation!

Very dirty floors

This property is in a great location and the owners are prompt with their response. However, this place was incredibly dirty and the management did not feel the need to make this right with us. We arrived at the property late the first night then immediately went out to explore Memphis the next day. We didn’t notice how dirty the place was until late the next day. Within just an hour of walking around in the unit we all noticed that our feet were covered in dirt, totally black! We tried to deal with this on our own by just wearing socks but those also became gross and black due to the floors. We traveled with 2 young kids and felt gross with them playing/sitting on the floor. Along with the dirty floors, there was a dirt mark on the sheets, the bedroom light didn’t work, stains on the living room rug, smudges all over the glasses and dishes, dust and dirt all along the corners of the walls throughout the whole place. The air conditioner was incredibly loud but we had to keep it blowing because the 2 bedroom stayed really warm. It was almost like the ac unit didn’t reach the 2 bedrooms. My daughter woke up covered in sweat! Prior to writing this review we’ve been in close contact with the management to see if they’d make this issue right so we didn’t need to leave this very real review. Because we didn’t report the issue within 2 hours of staying there they said they couldn’t validate our concerns. They asked for pictures but still claim our issues are not true. Such a shame!

Great place and great location

Really enjoyed this rental. It was an easy check in and the apartment has everything you need. I cooked a few meals and they had everything I needed. Location to downtown Memphis couldn’t be better. I will say that at night it can be noisy with loud music and loud cars but they provide earplugs!!! All in all great stay.

Have already recommended it to family and friends! We were able to walk or catch the trolly to all the places we wanted to see.

Great apartment and amazing location

This is a great 2 bedroom apartment in the heart of the downturn area. My friend and I stayed here for three nights in May and had a blast. It is within walking distance to Beale street and many historic sights. There are amazing restaurants in the surrounding area also all within walking distance. Try Good Fortune right downstairs for some amazing ramen featuring their house made noodles. Central Bbq and Charlie Vergas Rendezvous are worth a visit for some delicious Memphis Bbq and also easily within walking distance. Graceland is 20 minutes away which was a $17 Uber ride. The pictures accurately represent the unit. The owner and management company were very quick at responding to any questions I had. I would highly recommend this apartment if you are looking to have a fun time in downtown Memphis.

Everything about this property was just as advertised. It was a mother/daughter trip during the week. Other than the trolley whistle, we did not experience issues with noise from the street. We did not do any cooking so I cannot comment on the adequacy of the kitchen supplies. Pros: Free parking. It was hard to find a place to stay in downtown Memphis that offered any parking, especially free. Location was within walking distance to many of the attractions we wanted to take part in. Firm beds, for me. Extra toilet paper. :) Freezer that made ice Cons: Firm beds, for my mom. Loud A/C unit making TV watching nearly impossible while it was running. No TV antenna for local channels - missed the news and Olympics
