Nice, convenient stay! We were very pleased with the location and cute, safe neighborhood. The host was super pleasant and communicative. Was a great spot to stay with dogs - fully fenced back yard. All the listed amenities were included- plus snacks! Would stay again!

Such a cute guest house that sits behind a big historic home in a very beautiful historic neighborhood. If I were to live in Memphis, this would be the neighborhood I would pic. Felt very safe and the owner on property is very nice and helpful. We were only there 1 day as we traveled through for an overnight roadtrip. It’s hard to find places that don’t require 3 day minimum. (At least places that you’d want to stay!) super cute setup they have there.

Neat little spot

Very cute and tidy backhouse in a great area. Can walk to zoo and Brooks museum from here in no time. The door is a little fickle and hard to open at times because of its locking mechanism but it didn’t detract from my overall visit.

The communication was well beyond what I expected. The room was cozy and priced below what I have paid for similar accommodations. Street side parking concerned me, but the neighborhood was great and we had no issues.

Exactly what we wanted!

My wife and I planned a three day trip to Memphis to explore and see some sites such as Graceland, Sun Studios, and Beale Street. These were the perfect accommodations. It was private and had plenty of room for the two of us. Located in a safe neighborhood, we were able to walk to the Memphis Zoo and local restaurants and were just a few blocks from Overton Park which is a great place for walks/hikes. Everywhere else we went was a short Uber ride. Katy is a great host. Very friendly and responsive and gave great suggestions.We highly recommend and would stay again!
