 "This guesthouse is unique place to stay in the heart of downtown Memphis." Full review
 "Characterful, friendly and comfortable family-run place near Beale St. Each of the eight themed suites has a kitchenette, CD player and internet access." 
 "A favorite with celebrities, this intimate property sits across the street from the Peabody, and just a block from Historic Beale Street." 
 "In a world where 100-plus room properties define themselves as boutique hotels, this place stays true to the definition." 
 "Sitting in the Peabody's morning shadow (and a hop, skip, and jump from its legendary bar), the seven-room Talbot Heirs is an oft-overlooked home away from home." 
 "It's much hipper than most other B and Bs. The inn's spacious rooms are each boldly designed in different color schemes—from light purple to red-orange—and all have cozy sitting and dining areas." Full review
 "Inconspicuously located on the 2nd floor of a busy downtown street, this cheerful guesthouse is one of Memphis' best kept and most unique secrets." Full review
