The Guest House at Graceland
The outside needs to be kept more clean. Outside by the pool, the fire pits are seldom lit because there’s no gas & no one keeps the propane full. The staff & valet are fantastic!!!!

Memphis Riverline Hotel
Everything was great, no price tags in the store and then paying $10 for a bottle of water seemed a little excessive.
