The Peabody Memphis
I really enjoyed my stay in the room was beautiful however when I booked a room and it was reserved and I get there and they say they don’t have it available but I can upgrade for $40 and make me pay for the upgrade fee is not good practice. They should have upgraded my room and not charged me anything ...

Comfort Inn Memphis Downtown
The staff was very nice and the hotel was very clean. Breakfast was good and parking was in a parking garage that was attached to the hotel so you don’t have to worry about parking on the street.
