Very nice hotel, immediately got a good vibe from this place. RIGHT IN THE HEART of downtown, you can walk ANYWHERE from here! The FedEx Forum is just across the street, when I looked out my window, I was looking at the FedEx Forum, reading the scrolling text on the screen. Just like the other review, the basketball players must love this place because they were crawling in our hotel, as well as anywhere else we walked to downtown. (They had several games last week) It's a wonderful environment, the staff is so friendly. To get to Beale Street all you do is just turn a corner and you're there. You can walk to the Peabody, Peabody Place, Rendezvous... it's great. The valet parking was nice. It was around $20 but it was worth it. In your room you just press a button, tell them your number, tell them you want your car and once you get down to the lobby, your car is waiting for you. They helped us unload our bags and put them into our room. Everything was very convenient and nice. There was a mini-fridge in the room, but it was full with drinks already. Actually if an item was picked up off of it's designated spot for 30 seonds, you were charged for it, the only bad thing about that... There was also candy, mints, etc. but the same policy goes for that as well. This stuff wasn't cheap either! I would have liked to have had a personal fridge and a microwave, but we managed without it. The bathroom was VERY nice. Overall it was a good experience. No balconies though! I love balconies, and this hotel has none.
Pros: Parking, Location
Cons: In our room there was no microwave and no pesronal fridge. Also, if you picked up an item for more than 30 seconds, you're immediately charged for it... no balcony
