Great place! Amazing location. It’s a super-nice, large loft condo with outdoor parking in the heart of the South Main district. This was my first time in Memphis, so I knew nothing when I arrived. When you walk out the front door and turn left, you are a 5-minute walk from Beale Street, which is filled with live blues music and restaurants. There are also great restaurants on your way there, like Esco. If you walk out the door and turn right, you are a 3- minute walk from the Lorraine Motel where MLK was killed. It’s a sad but fascinating site to see, because it’s been perfectly preserved and you feel like you went in a Time Machine to the 1960s. The civil rights Museum is there now too. The Arcade Restaurant is one more block down, and that’s a classic diner that feels like a Time Machine from the 1950s. Graceland is a 15- 20 minute drive, and that is definitely worth doing. Bottom line is that Tim’s place is giant, nice, and convenient to so much, especially food & music.
