The Central Gardens property is located in a very upscale neighborhood of Memphis. Although it is in the historic Midtown section of Memphis, it is only a very short drive (10 minutes or less) to downtown (Beale Street, Sun Studio, the Rock and Soul Hall of Fame, Belz Museum of Asian and Judaic Art, the Bass Glass Pyramid, The Peabody, The National Civil Rights Museum at the Lorraine, etc.). There are multiple areas to shop nearby (e.g., an excellent Kroger's grocery store is just a 2 minute drive). The property itself is a luxurious and most lovely home that is exceptionally well decorated and full of charm. Of all of my world travels and staying often in VRBO properties, this is undoubtedly the most beautiful one. Additionally, it is a very clean property, with terrific A/C, 2 washers/dryers, a most spacious master bedroom and bathroom as well as the two guest bedrooms that are roomy and most gracefully decorated.. It is hard to describe in words how spectacular this property is. By the way, one can park one's car safely in the property as the entrance to the parking area in the back area of the property is gated. Furthermore, the host (Gabe) was terrific. He provided many recommendations for places to see in Memphis as well as restaurants to try (nearby and in town). Whenever we had any questions, he was quick to respond. Overall, if you truly want to add a touch of class to your stay in Memphis, this is the place that you want to select..
