Safe and comfortable accommodations with all necessities provided. Loved proximity to Overton Park especially the challenging little 9-hole golf course. Plenty of good food nearby. Close enough to Memphis attractions. Host was especially attentive. Could not ask for more at that price point.

Just all around great little place!

My daughter and I stayed here over the weekend for an event and the Memphis Sports & Event Center. This duplex was less than 2 miles from the venue. As a bonus, it was less than a mile from Overton Square! Lots of great places to eat or Overton Square! The duplex is cozy and has everything you need. Communication with owner was exceptional!! The thing I liked best about this place is that it is completely gated and you have to have a code to get through the gate! We felt totally safe here!

You Get What You Pay For

When I first arrived, I could not get into the rental, due to the fact they sent a message while in route to Memphis that the code changed, but that code didn't work either. It took a half an hour in 100 degree weather to fix that problem, which management apologized for. When I finally got into the rental, I was assaulted by a strong mildew smell. I'm severely allergic to molds and mildew, which I had to immediately buy febreeze and Flonase. The place was stocked with all the essentials, location was great to the Target house at Saint Jude, (my 2 year old grandson and family are there), and the street was quite. About the bedroom...I had to clean the walls due to dust and cob webs, and the room was shabby, bathroom was clean and I never used the living room, due to the fact that the sofa smelled of mildew. I did like the location, the security fence, the white noise machine in the bedroom and the washing and dryer machine (note: there was a loud screeching noice coming from the dryer, which I left management know about), the quite street, and the clean refrigerator. So, if you're not going to be in the rental long, need quick access to midtown, a place that is budget friendly and feels somewhat safe this is an ok place to rent.

The apartment was exactly as advertised. It was very clean and had everything we needed to be comfortable. The bed was extremely comfortable. The shower was wonderful. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything, including ground coffee for the coffee maker. Being able to regulate the temperature was great because it got pretty cold the second night. It is close to so many restaurants, many also have live music. Parking was included and we greatly appreciated the safety of having this property be gated. My husband and I would definitely stay here again if or when we come to Memphis. Our host was extremely responsive and answered any and all of my questions within a few minutes.
