Motel 6 Memphis, TN - Downtown
Wifi didnt work. No security lock on door, only flimsy deadbolt. Bathroom walls and door filthy. Toilet leaks onto floor. No lamp in room nor frig and microwave. The only good thing is beds were clean and front desk was nice.

The Guest House at Graceland
The hotel staff were all very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Loved the Elvis ambiance. Would like longer hours for gift shop. Would like to be able to watch Elvis movies in the room.
