Liked: The location was good and the private room I stayed in, while not worth the money I paid, was OK.
Disliked: The property is much more like a motel than a hostel and the prices and rooms available on offer were disappointing for someone trying to get to Memphis on strict budget. The staff weren't very helpful or friendly and the breakfast services were very thin on the ground. There were no organised activities/events or much in the way of instructions on what to do in the city.

Liked: Location was very good, right next to Beale Street and just a few blocks to Mississipi river. Bed was huge and very comfortable, and rooms were clean.
Disliked: The free breakfast was just a few small muffins and coffee out of a styrofoam cup, so not the very best- but as it is 6-9 a.m., I mostly missed it anyway. Coffeeshops are in walking distance.

Liked: The location is just great, really near from Beal St and Main st. The room I stayed in (for two people) had been recently painted and remodeled, and it was pretty well and confortable. You have fridge and tv in the room, clean towels, CA, ... The staff is not what I'd call friendly, but at least they're not rude.. They offer a few things for breakfast which may help a little bit, they're ok but quite scarce..
Disliked: It's not the hostel you'd go if you wanna hang out with other travelers or if you expect to have fun and share time in some common areas.. Besides, everything is quite clean, but still I could find a couple of bedbugs in the morning.. so if u're picky with that, take care.

Liked: It was in a good location, close to Beale St and things like Sun studios and the rock and soul museum
Disliked: It didn't feel like a good area, not everything functioned well in the rooms, it was run down the outside doesn't inspire a lot of confidence so when I saw the inside of my room I wasn't so surprised. The beds were also horrendous, the wooden slates were the worst things to sleep on ever the ground would have been more comfortable.

Liked: we stayed in a private room which had its own bathroom, tv and microwave, and also the location is a two minute walk from beale street.
Disliked: the layout is of a classic motel, with all of the rooms fairly exposed to the outside, so you dont feel as safe and secure as you would in a hostel or hotel.

Liked: Location only - near the centre of Memphis
Disliked: The first room I was given had a door which could not be locked , the frame of which was coming away. The replacement room was just about ok, but had no TV remote and soap. The breakfast was miserly

Liked: Decent location. Only a five minute walk to Beale St and short walk to Sun Studios.
Disliked: The beds were unbelievably uncomfortable! It was like sleeping on wooden panels. I've been travelling around the US for 2 months and this is by far the least comfortable bed ever. The place is actually a motel with one room which has two bunks in it. The place isn't really set up to look after backpackers.
