3. It is only 5 minutes from Mud Island Park, Beale Street, or the Memphis Zoo, and a couple of minutes to the BBQ shop, a great place to get some BBQ.

"Nice Little Hotel " Read full review on TripAdvisor 10/7/2007 Vote

4. I thought I would be angry that Beale street was 2 miles away but that was actually better because we drove and it was a straight shot to the action , with no crazy traffic to have to listen to all night long.

5. The trolley station is a 2 block walk (the area does look a little iffy, but we never had a problem) and it goes directly downtown to the mall and Beale street.

"Excellent Value for your Money " Read full review on TripAdvisor 1/22/2012 Vote

6. The only downside was the trolley does go down the street in front of the hotel and it can be a little noisy every 16 minutes but after awhile you start to tune it out.

7. Although the hotel is located in the medical/university area, it is a short trolley ride to downtown and Beale Street.

9. True, the neighborhood is pretty average - if you are on foot, you probably won't want to stay here - we didn't think it was much different from the other main streets in terms of crime etc, but there's not a lot around in the way of restaurants and such.

"Fantastic Stay! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/1/2010 Vote
