I always opt for B/W motels when price/location are favorable. Chose to stay here for two nights as a tourist visiting Graceland.
The Good: Nice large standard room with 'fridge; clean and inviting; good comp breakfast in the morning; friendly staff; good security; quiet neighborhood; easy Interstate I-240 on/off access; an easy short drive to Graceland.
The Not-So Good: It's in the middle of no-where. Behind the property is a heavy equip. storage depot and across the street a heavy-duty truck dealership (see photos). There is nothing within walking distance for eating or shopping. The drive to Graceland is through a neighborhood of pawn shops, gas station mini-marts and boarded-up buildings.
The tour of Graceland is a surprisingly delightful experience. Unfortunately its location is awful. Elvis Presley Blvd has nothing but fast-food drive-thru's; no sit-down-and-be-served restaurants such as an Applebee's, Chili's, Denny's or Outback.
If you are visiting Graceland (a MUST SEE) with family I would suggest staying either in downtown Memphis or outside of town.
