Cozy Bears Bunker's & Carpe Diem Spa
Hu. Hotel
The room was spacious and clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. Convenient parking. The only downside was breakfast. We came down 1/2 hour before closing and there was very little hot food left. What was there was lukewarm and tasteless. We would stay there again but plan breakfast ...

The Guest House at Graceland
Very glad was able to stay here with my 18 year old daughter. Really amazing decor and room was very comfortable. We especially loved the complimentary peanut butter and jelly bar at night. Staff were all very pleasant.

Memphis Vitality Hotel
Overall good, water was shut off during my stay. And it happened to be the second time this happened. The staff were nice and gave me a free late checkout. I feel like it could have been a better discount. But appreciate what was given and actually had to extend my stay a few more nights.
