We loved this place! It was super clean and comfortable. It was in walking distance of the venue we were visiting and in walking distance of the zoo. Check in was convenient and easy and checkout was super simple. If ever in Memphis again, we would definitely stay here again!

Home is comfortable, clean, spacious and feels "like home". When an extra day was added, owner was extremely kind and communication was bar none.
Thank you kindly for a great place to stay! We appreciated it. Have an amazing day.
This is a perfect place to stay in Memphis, cosy and charming, close to most touristic places ( 15 min drive), 2 bedroom that can easily accommodate 4 people, one kitchen where you can easily cook. Host was accessible and easily contacted.
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!!!

Generally the unit was clean. I suggest a deep cleaning. Half bath sink needs repair. Better direct communication and action to resolve access (rear entrance) and WiFi/tv issues were needed. Note debris on porch and yard when arrived; we had to request maintenance. Suggest coverings that are not see through for living room. More towels.
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

A Memphis Must
Perfect spot for our cousins' roots road trip stopover. Very clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the unique decor and neighborhood.
Nice property with good location in Midtown and close to several nice restaurants. Pretty good job with all the renovations and updates. Neighborhood seemed moderately safe.
This property was perfect for us while we were visiting our daughter and also needing to work. Clean, nice space, great communications, comfortable, convenient. Thanks!
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.
Property was graeat and close to everything we wanted to visit. As many reviews indicated, owner may want to hire new cleaning service, upon arrival we had a dirty fork in the sink, mirrors have not been been cleaned in a very long time. Other than that , place is true to it's description, my daughter and i enjoyed our stay there. Will definitely return
My wife and I hosted our son and his girlfriend here at this amazing property for Thanksgiving. We LOVED it. It was just the right size for the four of us. Two very comfortable sofas in the living area, in front of a big screen tv. When we weren’t cooking or eating, we sprawled on the sofas and read or watched the parade or napped. The management was so warm and helpful and agreeable. We had a small mishap and all they cared about was that we were okay. We want to do it again next year!
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!
