One bedroom features two queen beds with fresh linens and modern décor, while the other includes a single queen bed, a decorative fireplace, and built-in shelving that highlights the home’s historic character. With two full bathrooms, everyone can enjoy plenty of comfort and privacy.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a coffee maker, microwave, kettle, stove, oven, refrigerator, and basic cooking tools, making it easy to prepare meals at home. Gather around the rustic dining table for a relaxed meal, or step outside to the property’s patio, where you can enjoy a quiet morning coffee or evening drink. An in-unit washer and dryer are also available for your convenience. Hardwood floors, warm tones, and original wood trim throughout the home create an inviting and authentic Memphis atmosphere.

Guests have full access to the private two-bedroom unit, including the living room, kitchen, dining area, bathrooms, and bedrooms reserved exclusively for your group. There is also a separate common living room in the building that is shared with other guests, and the laundry area is shared as well.

Our goal is to ensure you have a 5-star experience.

Our dedicated team is available around the clock to assist with any questions or needs you might have. We value your privacy but are always just a message or phone call away.

We`re always available to provide local recommendations, help with home amenities, or address any issues.

The home is located in the historic Midtown area of Memphis, a neighborhood known for its beautiful tree-lined streets, charming older homes, and eclectic character. You’ll find a mix of quiet residential blocks and lively spots nearby, with plenty of local restaurants, cafés, and bars just minutes away. The property is also close to Overton Park, the Memphis Zoo, and other cultural attractions that showcase the city’s unique energy.

While the area has plenty of charm and convenience, it also reflects the authentic, lived-in character of Memphis, with a mix of modern updates and historic surroundings. Guests who enjoy being near the heart of the city while experiencing the flavor of a local neighborhood will feel right at home here.

Everything was pretty good for the time being but 3 major problems were the heat not working too well, the power went of a few times, and I saw roaches. Other than that the stay was pretty nice!
