“Skip these Memphis Suites. Electrical and plumbing problems. Filthy”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed August 11, 2012

I decided to try this hotel since my sister and Mom with my two nieces were going to stay there a it stated suites. It is far from a suite but more a two queen bed room with a small partial divider between the beds and a loveseat. Definitely not a suite.

The room floor was filthy. The carpet had the bottom of your feet black in no time. To turn off the air conditioner you had to unplug it as the controls did not work. Very dangerous. I found this out the hard way when I found the plug on the floor upon checking in. Every time I wanted to adjust the air I had to pull the plug.

My sisters room had the tub water would not turn off so water leaked all the time. The front dest person stated that would require a plumber. They won't pay for that.

It also said that breakfast was included. Better get there before the food runs out which is very quick. Did not qualify as breakfast with seating for only a few in the lobby.

Also when I went to check out the woman whom I assume was the wife of the owner tried to charge me for an extra person in the room since I had visitors- my family who were next door. It was not a small amount either. The price of another room.

I definitely would pass on this so named suite. Electrical problems mean fires and plumbing problems not fixed mean floods. The room size is the same as any other hotel room.

Room Tip: Better off spending a night downtown Memphis in clean room. This hotel does not do the Best Western...

“Worst Hotel of the Trip”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed July 20, 2012

On a trip by car from Washington DC to Memphis, we stayed at eight different Best Western motels and hotels. This was by far the worst of the lot. We had booked in advance and stood to lose our deposit otherwise we would probably have gone elsewhere having been greeted by the depressing reception area, overpowering smell of cooking curry and having to ring a bell several times to get any attention from a reluctant receptionist. The elevator was scruffy, but to be fair the room was clean and well-enough appointed, although at lunch time curry fumes percolated up from the reception area below.
Breakfast was minimal in a very small room. Another guest said "Best Western should be ashamed of this place!" There was no coffee. Vigorous ringing of the bell eventually secured the attention of the reluctant receptionist, who said that it might take some time.
Do not be fooled by the blandishments in the advert which state that the location provides easy access for the sights of Memphis. It is 10 miles out of the city along a very congested freeway.

Room Tip: Get as high and far from reception as possible unless you are particularly fond of curry.

“Wish I had read reviews BEFORE my stay!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed July 2, 2012

Worst Best Western experience EVER!!!! The room was clean, that's about the only good thing I can say. Very expensive for what you received. Two towels, three people, and like the previous reviews, shampoos and soaps were rationed. When we left for the day, housekeeping came in and turned our air 10 degrees higher, when we got back the room was unbearable! Breakfast? I don't know where to begin, the "dining area" is not even the size of a room. Coffee was weak, looked like tea, waffle batter was soured, gravy was like water, and warm at best, biscuits were left from day before (I saw them in the bin as I was checking in.) Tator tots were probably from the day(s) before, dry and tasted old, and the sausage (the only other "hot" food) was terrible. They did have orange juice, and a gallon of milk in the small refrigerator. There was a big sign reading "Food is to be eaten in lobby only." Will not only never go back, but would be embarassed to recommend this hotel to my worst enemy. Very disappointed.

Room Tip: Do not stay at this hotel! Consider yourself warned.

“Very bad experience.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed June 11, 2012

We saw the pictures and thought this would be a great place to be. We were VERY VERY Wrong. Dirty room, dirty sticky floor, everything smelled like smoke. This was the worst hotel I've stayed in all my life. STAY AWAY!
