The sunrise café opposite, does a really good breakfast
This is not really a place for small children. There is nowhere to really feed your child because the dining table is a high table with barstools and the place is full of showpieces that are sharp and heavy - so not toddler proof. Unfortunately the place was quite dirty when we arrived. For example, the cutlery drawer had bits of food in it and the towels smelled damp. Communication from the host was not great when we were trying to contact them both during the stay.

Apartment was close to downtown and grocery stores. Good location for exploring Tennessee, Mississippi, and Arkansas. Kitchen was clean and well stocked with the right equipment for making breakfast and other meals as needed. Clean, safe, and comfortable even with a tornado warning!
Please remove the air fresheners. They were very strong and overwhelming every time we entered the apartment.
Parallel parking in front of the apartment was challenging at times especially if other cars did not provide enough space.

Clean apartment, comfortable bed plus one sofa bed, hot shower.
The second bed was a sofa bed, not a second bedroom.
The location was just too far out of Memphis to walk, particularly over a main freeway and wouldn't have risked it at night. Always disappointed when accommodations don't provide a folder of information on local restaurants and taxis etc.

Very cute property. really nice updates to the home.
There was a mound of dirty towels/comforters right as you open the door when we checked in. This wasn’t nice to see, we also saw the bed completely unmade and dirty mugs in the kitchen sink. Very disappointed, seemed lazy and would prevent us from rebooking if not addressed by the owner.

there was fast wifi
it’s not really close to downtown at all, not if you’re not renting a car anyway. Also my partner and I really didn’t feel safe, the front door is constantly left unlocked by other people staying at the property and there’s just a general uneasy feeling about the place. It needs a lot of TLC, and the owners need to invest in new linens/towels as there’s a lot of questionable stains.

Key access was relatively easy. Hot water in shower was good. Good breakfast place across the road.
This studio is not in downtown area. You have to cross two busy freeway to access the town. Texting and emailing the owners was non responsive for two days. Bed is pull down and leg is faulty so husband had to sleep on a slant . The written feedback from guests in the apartment evidenced that there was a common trend of ignoring maintenance issues. Owner did contact us in the end and offered a free nights stay next time we booked. I would not book this place again. Sounds harsh but I don't think I've ever given such a disappointing review and we travel a lot and use booking.com a lot. Felt completely ripped off.

We came down for a quick weekend and it was a very convenient location! We were able to drive to everything in a very reasonable amount of time and the parking was available all the time. The apartment itself was spacious and had a nice kitchen.
I wouldn't return too late unless you have a decent size group with you. This is a feature of Memphis, not of this property.

free parking in front of the property
the doors are NOT secured. the front door is basically dependent on the last person who enters to close which they never do. also apartment 202 upstairs has a very basic door latch so you are really easily accessible from the street. we left after one hour of checking in, and booked another facility down and the Shellcrest’s owners denied us a refund after we tirelessly tried to get in touch via phone and booking, without ever getting an answer. after arriving I read ALL the reviews and realized this has happened to many of us travelers. it is a well oiled scam. not many people would accept to stay in such a place and they just make money off people reserving and then leaving, refusing to pay.
- beds are dirty, really in bad condition, low quality mattress
- you need a car for the location
7.0 / 10.0
-The building is very nice looking with an historic athmosphere.
Also, it has everything you need like a big fridge,
dish washer, living room with television, etc.
-The WiFi was good.
-The diner across the street is nice for breakfast!
-The free street parking is also a plus.
-The building has a outdoor seating area.
-The beds were not very comfortable: one was very
old (which looks great!) but made a lot of noise. The
other one was too small for two persons and you
felt every move of the other person.
-The cleanliness of the appartement could be better.
-The windows could not be opened for some fresh air,
I guess because of the construction period.

The house was OK and pretty clean
If you're charging this amount and advertising a balcony from the bedroom the whole area at the back of the house needs cleaned up

I liked how attentive the host was even accommodating an early check in since we arrived so early in the day. The host gave thought to items you would need like dish washing soap, clothes detergent & a lighter for the candles. We also were able to use Netflix which was a nice bonus.
I liked everything about the property.
