I have stayed at the downtown property many times without problems and I really like it. Standard FS property, typical lounge. Good city views. Just outside you can catch the very old wooden trolleys that have been modified to run in a modern city. They cost like $1 per person per trip and will take you a mile or so to the sites. You will be right by Rendezvous Ribs which is awesome. They are located in an alley, so they are hard to miss. They are right by the old Peabody hotel, which is cool to see the ducks they parade through the lobby twice a day. Great triple A baseball park, but that wont be playing this time of year. Gibson guitar factory is there for a tour and the Memphis Fire Museum is one of the premiere in the country. Then you have Biel street and all the blues music you can handle. I would recommend staying there for a leisure trip. MC
