We chose this cottage as our crash pad the weekend of the St. Jude Marathon. It was an easy drive into the heart of downtown to get to the start line, and simple to get to a number of the race checkpoints for cheering on runners. The space was perfect for our needs - the kitchenette allowed us to prepare breakfast, the laundry machines saved us from stinky racewear, and the separate bedroom and living room gave us space to enjoy quiet recuperation time. The only caveat I have is to echo other guests' sentiments: the compound is older construction and you will hear everything from the adjoining space, should you have - ahem - amorous neighbors at 3 am (as was our experience). Bring earplugs or noise-canceling headphones, and you'll be just fine. Enjoy an economical stay with some nice amenities and an easy commute to some great Memphis neighborhoods.
