What a charming house!! Was well kept, clean and accommodating for our crew. As expected with "apartment style houses", the walls were thin-ish - thin enough that I could hear the neighbor's alarm go off - just thought it important to point out if you're a light sleeper. Otherwise, the place was great!!!

So clean. So thoughtfully styled. With relaxation in mind like soothing sound machines and earplugs. High ceilings. Generously sized rooms. Natural lighting and so many vintage details. This place will take you back in time and transform your stay at the same time. The host guidebook is extremely helpful. We enjoyed a wonderful meal based on the included suggestions. Check in and out is easy. Highly recommended. Thanks Memphis. We certainly plan to revisit

Great Midtown Apartment

This is a beautiful, quiet, Midtown apartment with a great front porch. I loved sitting out front. I don’t think the floors had been cleaned prior to our arrival. Overall, this was very enjoyable and I would probably stay there again.

Very nice stay at Memphis, charming and very clean apartment.

The apartment is very clean and very welcoming. It has been restored with taste and care. Sleeping in the sofa in the living room is not convenient as there are no opaque curtains so light comes in soon in the morning! The contact and assistance were very efficient and we have appreciated to stay there in family to visit Memphis.

Great place to stay!

We loved the property! The old apartment provides for a very relaxing atmosphere, and matches the pictures shown online. It is conveniently located next to restaurants, a grocery store, and Overton Park, and a short drive to anywhere you want to visit in Memphis! It is located on a street where locals live, who were very friendly and welcoming when we walked from the apartment to the restaurants down the street. The property was clean with the exception of the floors, mainly around the baseboards and the bathroom floor. But that did not take away from our overall experience - we would definitely stay there again!

Nice place

Nice enough place in a neighborhood that seems both a bit worn down and a bit up and coming. Advertised as close to Beale St but not close enough to walk. The property is nice but all of the living room furniture have unmatched blankets over them. Not sure if they are protecting the sofa and chairs or maybe hiding something. They might very well wash those blankets between every stay but we were not sure.

The property was not as advertised. It was dirty and I contacted the host and voiced my concerns. Namely there was no stopper for the kitchen sink the iron didn't work.A caretaker came and cleaned a mirror and wiped walls with the worst spots. He brought a stopper that didn't fit and an iron .He said he would be back the next day. I received a message from the host saying the caretaker would by and clean. I left for hours went and bought a stopper so he could work. He never came The host messaged me to apologize and say the issues would be resolved after I left. I took pictures, sent them to him. Then I went to the laundry room, I took pictures sent them to the host and told him before I could use it I would have to clean it. Again I got an apology say this was not typical of their properties. I realized that I was not going to get anything done. So I took pictures to document what I saw as fact. Which I can send to you.

Lovely on the inside!

Dear fellow travelers, I picked this place because of its great pictures and historic charm. I truly was excited to stay here but unfortunately our stay here was pretty disappointing. My plane into Memphis arrived late so when I arrived at the house in the wee hours of the morning the first thing I noticed was two full trash cans sitting on the walk way. I hate to say it, but those trash cans were still sitting there when we departed five days later. Not sure why the trash wasn't picked up but most of the trash cans on this street stayed full and on the curb. The neighborhood is a bit sketchy and as a woman I certainly wouldn't be walking home alone late at night (saw several people sleep on the street and on the church steps around the corner during all hours of the day). Also, the apartment complexes along this street look like Section 8 housing. A few other things I would like to point out...the house is NOT as clean as one would expect...hadn't been swept under any of the beds in God only knows how long (I dropped one of my rings so I had to search under the bed - not a pleasant experience), stepped into broken glass in the living room (sent pictures to the management company but they didn't send the cleaning crew to take care of the issue. Yes, they apologized but I expected someone to come and take care of the issue). If you need to work, know that the internet connection is really slow and the upstairs tenants are baby elephants. You won't be able to sleep in! A few other items that could be improved...lighting inside the home is poor (add some additional lights throughout the living area, bedrooms, dining room); the porch light is super bright and left on all night - need curtains that block out the porch light since you can't turn it off! And yes, decent hangers and a bath mat would be appreciated. There is a dresser in one of the bedrooms but no closet, and a closet but no dresser in the other bedroom. Hopefully this review will be helpful to the management company to hire a better cleaning crew as well as make some improvements. Thank you!
