We love Memphis and love our 901 neighbors. We have largely had very positive experiences hosting through Airbnb but the rare negative event has been with guests from Memphis. For that reason we do not allow locals to rent our home. We would invite you to consider one of our smaller studio apartments.

Your stay provides a living wage for a refugee family who lives in the neighborhood and provides the housecleaning. Also, we donate a percentage of the profit from your stay to nonprofits that connect people in need with temporary housing. Thank you for staying with us!
We can usually provide an earlier check-in or later checkout with a $25 fee for the extra coordination with housekeeping that is required. Just message us and we’ll let you know if possible.
Pets are welcome but there will be a $15 fee per pet for extra cleanup often required. This is in addition to the regular rate and the fee for one pet is usually applied automatically or can be paid through an app (as well as balance for additional pets).
We are located right near an elementary school. Please be careful when coming & going in the morning and afternoon :-)
While our cancellation policy is set as strict, reach out to us if plans change. We usually are able to provide a full refund if someone else books our place after you cancel.
