Sketchy neighborhood

I am unfamiliar with Memphis. I was trying to find a reasonably priced room close to the Memphis Sports Complex in a safe neighborhood. I got a very comfortable room but the surrounding area was scary. It was supposed to be a smoke free hotel but it reeked of Marijuana(especially 4th floor). The remote did not work completely. I could change channels but couldn't adjust the volume or turn it off without getting up. The plug ins nearest to the beds didn't work.

I didnt like the fact upon arriving it took a minute to get checked in when i already had a reservation in place. I had issues with the tv.Staff finally fixed that issue. Bathroom door wouldnt close up to lock. No microwave in room as stated on website. Some outlets weren't working. Ms. Joyce did excellent with the breakfast.

Average st

The room was pretty good. The check in was adequate. The clerk was not personable. This hotel was a bad reputation for break-ins in the parking lot, but our car was not bothered. This place is average on the whole.

The property was well taken care off and the furnishing and counter tops in the room looked brand new. The staff was friendly and helpful. My only reason for not giving a perfect score is that the ac unit is very old and noisy and there is light coming in from under the door which is distracting if you are sleeping. This is a simple hotel, with a small lobby but I found it to be more practical than the ones by Beale St. It is very quiet, parking is right there and the price is much better. Overall a much better deal. This is where I will stay the next time I am in town.

Disliked: Staff & service
The lady in the restaurant was very nice. Seemed apprehensive when desk/possible management was near. When i asked about checking out a day earlier then planned due to inclement weather, I had an 8 hour drive ahead of me and Memphis had received 6 inches of snow, they would not allow it. I think I was the only person there except for staff and family who was sleeping on the floor the behind the desk.
